Are you interested in learning more about your local stream? We need volunteers to collect important data on streams in the James River watershed around Lynchburg, VA. We will provide training and supplies, all you have to do is commit to attending the training and monitoring a site once a month.
You’ll be analyzing water to collect data on core parameters such as dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH, water clarity, and bacteria. All of these tests will be performed in the field using kits and equipment.[button link=”http://form.jotform.us/form/40575296688168″ color=”default” size=”” stretch=”” type=”” shape=”” target=”_blank” title=”” gradient_colors=”|” gradient_hover_colors=”|” accent_color=”” accent_hover_color=”” bevel_color=”” border_ icon_position=”left” icon_divider=”no” modal=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”1″ ]Register Here[/button]Registration is required.
