About This Activity
Nature Forward's Stream Science series begins online with Healthy Stream Biology. This introductory course can be taken on its own to familiarize students with the kinds of organisms that live in streams, how to find them, and how to identify them. It will also introduce stream form, flow, and structure, as well as describe in-stream and riparian habitat characteristics to look for. This class is required for those who wish to join Nature Forward's Water Quality Monitoring Program in Maryland and Washington, DC, and strongly recommended for anyone who does aquatic monitoring, fly fishermen, stream restoration scientists, consultants, and engineers, and of course naturalists and biologists. Following this class, take Stream Science Introduction Part 2: How to Read Your Stream.
