In the field

Boat Electrofishing Electrofishing boats are used for fish sampling in reservoirs, rivers, and larger streams.
	Backpack Electrofishing Mobile backpack units are useful for sampling in smaller streams and riffle areas of large streams.
Seining Large seines are used in many aquatic systems as a supplementary means of collecting fish to determine fish community health.
	Field Processing At the more remote study sites, fish and invertebrate samples are processed at a mobile field laboratory, and samples are preserved for later analysis.
Population Studies The age and growth of fish populations are determined through the use of a video-imaging and automated digitizing system.
