SUMMARY:Interpreting Fish Habitat Assessment Information – Online
DESCRIPTION:This Micro-Course presented by NRTG describes ways to assess and interpret collected information to draw inferences on fish use based on habitat in a defensible manner. Participants are assumed to have working knowledge of the standard stream fish habitat assessment methods.
