This is a Data Nugget that features Lexi Passante from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She shares her data on the impact of road salt on ecosystems near paved roads in Wisconsin. Salt is applied to roads in snowy climates to help keep them safe during the winter. When the snow melts, salt makes its way into local rivers. Halophiles, or bacteria that thrive in salty conditions might be a good indicator of how much salt is in a particular waterway, telling scientists when certain areas have become too polluted with salt.
