DBE provides science-based environmental services across a range of scales—from laboratory testing and benchtop studies to field monitoring, watershed assessments, and applied restoration support. We help clients choose the right approach for the question, the site, and the decision at hand.
DBE supports projects across a range of scales—from targeted laboratory testing to mesocosm studies, field monitoring, and watershed-scale assessments. We help clients choose the right level of study for the question they need to answer.
Microplate assays, incubations, and analytical testing for targeted process understanding.
Ideal for focused questions and rapid screening of treatment options, nutrient behavior, and biological activity under controlled conditions.
Cores, columns, and tanks to evaluate treatment performance under controlled conditions.
Mesocosm studies bridge lab and field by testing real materials and site conditions with better control and repeatability.
Responsive sampling, enclosures, and site-based monitoring to capture real-world conditions.
DBE performs routine and event-based field work for surface water, groundwater, soils, and restoration monitoring in both remote and urban environments.
Monitoring, GIS-supported assessments, and basin prioritization for planning and management.
For large-scale planning and restoration, DBE supports watershed assessments, prioritization, and long-term monitoring strategies tied to client goals.
Project Support at Any Scale
DBE helps clients move from questions to action with the right combination of field monitoring, laboratory testing, and applied research support. We tailor the scope to your site, timeline, and decision needs.
DBE combines technical depth with practical field experience to support monitoring programs, treatment decisions, and ecosystem management.
Research & Consulting
Applied research and consulting support to define problems, evaluate options, and guide decisions using site-specific science.
Monitoring & Sampling
Routine, responsive, and project-specific field monitoring for water, groundwater, soils, and restoration sites—including remote locations.
Analytical & Bench-Scale Testing
Low-level analytical chemistry and applied testing designed to support treatment, nutrient management, and restoration performance decisions.
DBE regularly collaborates with agencies, researchers, and technical partners through conferences, workshops, peer review, and project-specific scientific support. We value practical collaboration that strengthens environmental decision-making and improves outcomes in the field.
