Multi-State:

As an outcome of a Soil and Water Conservation Society Conference- “Nutrient Management and Edge-of-Field Monitoring”, a special issue of Journal of Soil and Water Conservation comprised of presentation manuscripts was developed. The special issue directly aligns topics of interest and priorities of SERA-46, and SERA-46 members contributed to the special issue (Mike Daniels (University of Arkansas) helped organize the effort and Beth Baker (Mississippi State University) contributed original monitoring research). This special issue is expected to be published in January 2018 and will be a product that directly serves priorities of SERA-46.

Illinois (Laura Christianson):

“Serving as one of the Illinois representatives on the multi-state SERA 46 committee has resulted in my leveraging time invested in service activities to yield grant funding. I am leading a multi-state collaboration, stemming from SERA 46 activities, to develop a nutrient loss reduction measurement and tracking framework for the US Hypoxia Task Force (funded by Walton Family Foundation, 2016-2018, $344K).”
