This research addresses the utility of bioassessment for managing aquatic life uses in urban and/or urbanizing catchments (i.e., watersheds) and specifically defines a process for developing alternative biological benchmarks for aquatic life use in urban catchments. Final product includes Research Digest, Flow-Time Series Estimator Model, and Literature Database. Published by WERF. 66 pages. Soft cover, CD ROM, online PDF. (2007)

Originally funded as WERF project 01-WSM-3.
