Featured Speaker: Brian Duffy, Research Scientist, NYSDEC Stream Monitoring and Assessment Section
This presentation will provide an overview of the streams component of the Department of Environmental Conservation’s Rotating Integrated Basin
Studies Program (RIBS) and its sampling design. Focus of the presentation will be on aquatic macroinvertebrates found in rivers and streams and their utility as water quality indicators, along with some examples of how they inform water quality evaluation. With the RIBS program cycle bringing focus to the Lower Hudson River watershed in 2022, Brian will discuss how you can participate in the process and how to access water quality data resources on the internet.
