HRES Publications

The Hudson River Environmental Society, a non-profit organization founded in 1970 to foster research on the Hudson River environment and related coastal areas, provide a forum for researchers, and make environmental research available to citizens and public officials; is cleaning house.

In an effort to clear storage space, we are giving the following publications free of charge to interested parties. These materials are offered on a first-come, first served basis, with preference given to public, non-profit and not for profit organizations.

Below is a list of the available publications and a brief description of each. Quantities are limited.
