Biological monitoring is a fun, affordable, and effective method of stream monitoring. BMI, or Benthic (bottom-dwelling aquatic organisms) Macro (visible to the naked eye) Invertebrates (organisms without backbones) can tell us a lot about stream health.
A healthy stream fosters a good diversity of aquatic invertebrate species which vary in their tolerance for impaired water quality. Therefore, one of the most effective ways to monitor surface water quality can be through biological assessment of BMI in area streams.
Whether you’re new to the world of stream monitoring or have been doing this for years, this is a great opportunity to get your feet wet for water quality in Fall Creek.

Event Details
Sail ho! For the second and final time in 2016, CSI’s 4-H2O Program will be partnering with the Floating Classroom to collect and analyze water samples across Cayuga Lake. Participants will learn how to collect water samples, including samples from 150′ down in the lake, and will analyze them while on board the MV Haendel. Data collected by youth volunteers is included in our online database.
This event is free but you must register by emailing info@communityscience.org or calling 607-257-6606. Your party is not registered until you receive confirmation from a CSI staff member. Thanks!
