Please join us in person or online on Wednesday, November 15, 2023 at 1:30pm CST for the next Minnesota Stormwater Seminar Series event - a monthly experience featuring national, state, and local experts on stormwater and green infrastructure. This seminar series is a partnership between the University of Minnesota's St. Anthony Falls Laboratory [ [link removed] ] and Water Resources Center [ [link removed] ], and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency [ [link removed] ], and made possible through the?Minnesota Stormwater Research and Technology Transfer Program in collaboration with the Minnesota Stormwater Research Council [ [link removed] ].

* Ben Janke, Research Associate, St. Anthony Falls Lab and Ecology, Evolution and Behavior, University of Minnesota
* Panel Discussion to follow

*Abstract: *This project distilled recent urban stormwater data into a curated database representing 14,000 storm events across 91 sites in Minnesota. The database represents the outcome of hard work and large investments in collection of stormwater data by many individuals and organizations over the past 15 years. We applied the database to generate characterization of runoff quantity and quality specific to Minnesota and used it to reveal prominent features of stormwater quality and identify relationships between land cover, climate, and major stormwater pollutants. In this seminar we present the database, major findings from our analyses, and discuss further opportunities to leverage stormwater data collection to research and management. This project was funded by the Minnesota Stormwater Research Council.
