Abstract

The considerable logistical problems involved in large-scale monitoring networks could be overcome in part by establishing a biological water quality network of stations, operated by high schools. Measurement of benthic invertebrate community structure obtained in a pilot project involving five schools produced results that were reliable with regard to collecting and identification efficiency. Early results from a network that includes more than 20 teachers and 500 students at 12 schools show an ability to identify changes in stream water quality.
