Training material for the monitoring of small streams by citizen scientists according to FLOW project protocols for hydromorphology and benthic invertebrates.

A process description helps volunteers to check local conditions, to develop agreements between stakeholders and to implement site- and group specific measures. Fact sheets are provided on three different CS stream restoration measures: installing wood structures, gravel micro-groins and planting alders.

In this guide you can also learn about our approaches to monitor temporal changes in the benthic invertebrate community using the bioindicator EPT ratio.
