MesoHABSIM: Instream Habitat Data Collection and Modeling
Summer Course, Date: September 8-12, 2008
Location: Amherst Massachusetts
Tuition: $950
The course is intended to teach the basics of data collection techniques within the MesoHABSIM framework, data processing with MesoHABSIM software and the creation of GIS habitat models. Course participants will have an opportunity to conduct stream habitat mapping with a PocketPC, use the grid electrofishing technique, compute multivariate habitat suitability criteria for native fish species, create habitat suitability maps, create habitat-flow rating curves and habitat time series analysis (UCUT curves), develop flow augmentation scenarios and simulate habitat improvement measures. This course also includes training in Sim-Stream software.
