Long Island Sound Lawn Fertilizer Outreach Targeting Tool
Nitrogen (N) from residential lawn fertilizer is one of the most challenging and persistent problems impacting the health of Long Island Sound (LIS). An interdisciplinary team of researchers from Clark University, the University of Connecticut, the University of Maryland, and the University of Miami collaborated on an effort to better target education and outreach campaigns to reduce the use of lawn fertilizer in areas of greatest impact.
This Story Map and the associated Lawn Fertilizer Outreach Targeting Tool can help identify areas of the watershed for which interventions to reduce lawn fertilizer may have greater impacts.
