Note: This page is not yet well populated, but please stay tuned and plan to return!
The page will ultimately provide citation information (and links where possible) to member-nominated peer-reviewed publications of special interest and/or broad application that are either recently published (within the last 12 months) or especially seminal and highly cited (>100 citations) . The highly cited publications will become part of our “permanent collection” and must be nominated by CBED members other than the authors. The listings of new publications will be a “rolling” list, with older entries removed quarterly.

Their work is now paying the dividend of cleaner water.
