Field Study –Characterize Cu and Zn speciation in stormwater runoff –Evaluate road dust as a potential source in runoff and retention pond sediments –Determine potential availability of metals in pond sediments –Determine storage of Cu and Zn in pond Laboratory Bioassay –Determine effects of aged tire debris and Zn 2+ on wood frog (Rana sylvatica) eggs and larvae Project Objectives Urban Environmental Biogeochemsitry Laboratory

Zn and Cu in Roadway Runoff Urban Environmental Biogeochemsitry Laboratory

16500 g Zn = 73.3 storms 225 g Zn storm storms can occur over a 3-4 year period Indicates a loss of Zn into surrounding environment 6000 g Cu = 140 storms 43 g Cu storm storms can occur over a 7-9 year period Indicates some loss of Cu to surrounding environment Fate of Zn and Cu in Retention Pond Lost from system Urban Environmental Biogeochemsitry Laboratory

Zn Accumulation in Tissues Hatching success was significant between clutches (P<0.0001) and moderately significant between treatments (P=0.0442) Significant differences in time to metamorphosis between treatments (P=0.0081). Tire and ZnCl2 were slower than soil, but were not significantly different from each other Accumulation in tissues was significant between treatments (P<0.0001) and all treatments were significantly different from each other Urban Environmental Biogeochemsitry Laboratory Wood Frog Bioassay
