Learn about how the way we use the land influences streams
Date and Time
Tuesday, June 16, 2020 from 7:00pm - 9:30pmOverview
Learn about the influence of land uses on streams, stream character and dynamics, bank erosion, bar formation, substrate composition, different velocity-depth regimes, and the importance of riffles and riparian vegetation. We will practice assessing stream habitat by using photographs of streams and the forms that monitors fill out in the field. This class is recommended for anyone who plans to participate in the ANS water quality monitoring program and is a good refresher on habitat assessment for experienced monitors. This class will be held online via Zoom.
