#WestbrookME - Marsh and Stream Explorers Field Training in Westbrook
April 25 from 9:30 am-12 pm
Location: #MillBrookPreserve, Presumpscot Regional Land Trust, Westbrook
Free, registration required.
"Curious about what critters live in your local streams and freshwater marshes? Come join #MaineAudubon and #MaineDEP for a fun morning of catching and identifying #macroinvertebrates at Mill Brook Preserve! Get hands-on training and learn how you can contribute to an important community science project that acts as a screening tool for Maine’s Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) water quality assessments. Be prepared to wade into shallow water as you net and handle macroinvertebrates!
"Marsh and Stream Explorers is a water quality monitoring project that trains volunteers to survey streams and freshwater marshes for large #AquaticInsects (macroinvertebrates) which are sensitive to environmental stressors and can be indicators of #wetland health. After this training session, you’ll have the tools to choose and survey your own stream or freshwater marsh and contribute invaluable data to Maine’s water quality monitoring efforts. If you’re interested in getting outdoors, learning something new, and protecting your local #watershed, this community science project is for you!
"We will meet at the parking area for the Northern Trailhead and go on a short walk from there. Wear clothes and shoes you’re comfortable walking in and potentially getting wet, waders or muckboots are encouraged and some may be provided."

#Webinar - #Marsh and #Stream Explorers: A Treasure Hunt to Find Healthy Freshwater #Habitats in #Maine
Apr 22 2026
7:00 pm - 8:00 pm"Curious about what critters live in your local streams and freshwater marshes? Come learn about Maine Marsh and Stream Explorers, a collaborative #CommunityScience project between #MaineAudubon and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (#MEDEP). This program trains volunteers to survey for #macroinvertebrates, or large #AquaticInsects, in streams and freshwater #marshes statewide. With many macroinvertebrates sensitive to temperature, #pollutants, and other environmental stressors, their presence or absence serve as an important indicator of overall wetland health. This data then becomes an invaluable screening tool for #MaineDEP to prioritize where more-indepth water quality assessments should be conducted.
"In this webinar you’ll learn about what the Marsh and Stream Explorers project has accomplished and its impact on water quality monitoring statewide. We’ll look at our overall results, share our successes, and talk about future goals of the project. If you’re interested in getting outdoors, learning something new, and protecting your local watershed, this community science project is for you! Come learn more about how you can get involved. In-person field training for survey techniques to follow."

🦟🐛🐟 #BODYSIZE + #FRESHWATERS 🐟🐛🦟
We're organizing a special session "From individuals to ecosystems: a size-based understanding of freshwaters" at the Society for Freshwater Science 2024 meeting (June 2-6, Philadelphia USA). #sfs2024 #communityEcology #macroinvertebrates #fish #biomassDistributions #foodWebs
🦟🐛🐟 Please consider submitting! 🐟🐛🦟 -
And some inverts (of course!) from the same trip out to Two Tree Island - Coreus marginatus (dock bug); Nigma walckenaeri (green mesh weaver) and the gorgeous Pyrrhocoris apteris (firebug) - this one gets two photos! #Macrophotography #macroinvertebrates

Thrilled to announce the publication in L&O of our work on the diversity of temporary ponds from bacteria to vertebrates. We found higher alfa and gamma diversity in the tropics than in the Mediterranean, as expected (although not in all taxa), but no differences in beta diversity or temporal variability. #biodiversity #limnology #ecology #Freshwater #bacteria #zooplankton #phytoplankton #macroinvertebrates #amphibia #metacommunity #ponds https://aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/lno.12429

CW: Freshwater data 🐟🦐
The Journal of #Limnology published a special issue on georeferenced #freshwater #biodiversity data. The first three #datapapers are now available— about #rotifers and #diatoms in Italy 🇮🇹 and #zooplankton, #macroinvertebrates and #fish in Uganda 🇺🇬. More papers to come!
The special issue results from a collaboration between GBIF and the Journal of Limnology aimed at filling gaps in primary biodiversity data on freshwater species.
