Benthic invertebrates and monitoring in BC streams using CABIN, a Boundary region focus
Ever wonder what bugs might be living in the stream channel or along the river shoreline? What bugs can tell us about the health of our waterways? Join presenters Stephanie Strachan, Environmental Monitoring Scientist at ECCC (Federal) and Jolene Raggett, Environmental Impact Assessment Biologist at ECCS (Provincial) to hear about the how, when and why it’s important to monitor aquatic life in our waterways.
With 2020 coming to a close, the RDKB wants to thank all of the presenters this year for offering their time and knowledge in support of the Boundary Watershed Webinars.
If anyone has ideas of topics they would like to see discussed in the 2021 please let the Kristina Anderson know at [email protected].
