Aquifer Characterization in the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province
Existing models of the hydrogeology in the Blue Ridge Province in the eastern United States generally assume a simplified two-layered system consisting of shallow unconsolidated and relatively homogeneous and porous regolith with a water-table aquifer that slowly supplies water downward to the …

Physical Investigation of Field Scale Groundwater Recharge Processes in the Virginia Blue Ridge Physiographic Province
… with regional thrust faulting within the Blue Ridge Province. Recharge rates appear to be correlated to spatial variation in the hydraulic conductivity of the regolith, which has been influenced by weathering rates and the metamorphic and structural history of the underlying parent …

Holomorphology and systematics of the eastern Nearctic stonefly genus Remenus Ricker (Plecoptera: Perlodidae)
… R. kirchneri are apparently restricted to the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Based on Nature Serve global conservation rankings these species are of high conservation concern. Maximum entropy modeling was used to identify potentially suitable habitats …

Biotic and abiotic responses to rural development and legacy agriculture by southern Appalachain streams
Streams are integrative systems spanning multiple spatial and temporal scales. Stream researchers, land-use managers, and policy decision makers must consider the downstream displacement of streams when approaching questions about stream ecosystems. The study of how anthropogenic land-use …
