Abstract

This study was on anthropogenic debris (trash) in urban streams around Cuyahoga County, Ohio and Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Ten stream reaches were visited in North Carolina. Fourteen stream reaches were visited in 2021 and 11 were re-visited in 2024 in Ohio. The data collected were on the physical properties of the trash and their location within the stream. Within each 50 m reach, 4-6 transects were created across the stream channel and every piece of trash within 2 m of the transect was included. Cluster analysis on the variables collected was used to create morphospecies of trash and microhabitats within the stream. Data analysis was done using those clusters and including environmental and land use data from the reaches and surrounding areas. Manuscript in prep (Stumpf et al.)
