Baseline Monitoring AIS Factsheet
Be on the lookout for four key aquatic invasive species while conducting your stream monitoring, to help prevent the spread of these organisms in Wisconsin. If you suspect you’ve found an aquatic invasive species, follow the steps in this factsheet to identify, document and report your find!
Optional resource:
Interested in understanding the math behind WAV’s streamflow float method? Calculate streamflow by hand using this worksheet! Remember that the float method consistently overestimates streamflow by 24%, so you will need to account for this difference if you use the worksheet.
