We perform volunteer-assisted monitoring of aquatic insects and habitat conditions across the western US. Monitoring is key to understanding why some species are declining, how to prevent future declines, and how to restore impacted populations. These efforts are crucial to guiding preventative management and restoration.
Monitoring through citizen science
Protecting aquatic insects requires improved monitoring efforts to track population trends and document declines.
We work with government agencies and local watershed and fishing groups to establish citizen-led monitoring programs. We assist with program development and data collection, organization, and analysis. Reach out at conservation@salmonflyproject.org for more information.
