OSTI ID:6887697

Aquatic sampling has evolved at an exceptional pace in recent years. The manual is designed primarily for the field technician rather than the experienced research ecologist. Its purpose is to describe the equipment, procedures, and hypotheses potentially applicable to or previously used for studies of the impact of spruce budworm pesticides. The manual focuses on the field study of fresh water macroinvertebrates and fish, and covers both lotic (flowing) and lentic (stagnant) environments.
