CNR 11/26/2012 | Professor Norman Terry proposes efficient, new solution to remove selenium from Salton Sea. “You might call it a down payment. If we can prove this design is an effective way to get the water clean enough to restore these natural environments, then technology has the potential to solve many of California’s water problems.” -- Professor Terry |
Oakland Tribune 1/4/2003 | Wetlands are a great place to scrub selenium from contaminated farm runoff, Norman Terry, a University of California, Berkeley, professor of plant biology, reported this week in the online edition of Environmental Science and Technology, after a two-year study in the Central Valley. The group found that plants and microbes can send into the atmosphere close to 50 percent of the selenium found in drainage water from the San Joaquin Valley's selenium-rich west side. |
