Stream Health & Macroinvertebrate Discussion at Harwood Union Middle School

 

 

 
On Friday, November 19, 2021, VT EPSCoR CWDD's Operations Manager Janel Roberge remotely visited 46 seventh-grade science students at Harwood Union Middle School to confirm students' macroinvertebrate identifications. Students had recently sampled a stream near their school as part of an annual water quality unit that the CWDD has been a part of since 2015. The students were thrilled that they had accurately identified several different types of benthic macroinvertebrates, including pollution-intolerant species!
