Good words

If only we let the stars mirror back to us the big picture of the universe and the tiny precious speck of it we inhabit that we call Earth, maybe we will be given the humility and insight to love and appreciate all life and living forms wherever our journeys take us.

QHEI Credible Data Training
Start: 9:00 am
End: 5:00 pm

Cuyahoga SWCD is offering a series of Credible Data training workshops in 2010, including:

QHEI: The Qualitative Habitat Evaluation Index (QHEI) is a physical habitat index designed to provide an empirical, quantified evaluation of stream/river habitat characteristics. The resulting scores are correlated with the biological integrity of sites in Ohio. This tool is a visual method that is useful for prediction of biological impairment, or lack thereof, based on quickly assessable habitat parameters (substrate, in-stream cover, channel morphology, riparian zone/bank erosion, pool/glide and riffle-run quality, and map gradient). This introductory training is a requirement for approval of Qualified Data Collector (QDC) habitat assessment status (Level 2 or Level 3).

Trainer: Ed Rankin

Workshop dates: May 18-19, 9AM -5PM

July 14-15, 9AM-5PM

Cost: $20.00 (does not include lunch)

Chemical Water Quality: The Chemical Water Quality Assessment Training is intended for people who need training in water quality sampling, measuring stream discharge/flow, and/or creating a sampling plan or Level 2 project study plan. It is appropriate for everyone from government agency staff to students working in surface water assessment.
