This UROP project aimed to assess the effects that the structured ash tree removal would have on gross solids collected in rain gardens located in the Como neighborhood. Solids were collected from five rain gardens throughout the summer and the estimated dry mass of each sample was gathered. The data collected suggests that structured ash tree removal did have an impact on the overall amount of mass collected. Further analysis could reveal more gross solids trends affected by structured ash tree removal.enEABStructured Ash Tree RemovalRain GardensGross SolidsStormwater SolidsEmerald Ash BorerPresentation
