This research project will be comparing the aquatic macroinvertebrate communities between restored and non- restored streams. As a tiered mentor student, you would assist in the collection of the aquatic macroinvertebrates and learn the Ohio EPA\u2019s methodology for doing so. We will also be surveying stream\u2019s hydrology (flow) and geomorphology (physical channel features). There will also be opportunities to learn aquatic macroinvertebrate identification, data analysis and see some of the area\u2019s beautiful metro parks!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"717\" height=\"717\" class=\"wp-image-1727\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/tiered-mentoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1447\/2019\/03\/Macroinvert2.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/tiered-mentoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1447\/2019\/03\/Macroinvert2.jpg 717w, https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/tiered-mentoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1447\/2019\/03\/Macroinvert2.jpg?resize=150,150 150w, https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/tiered-mentoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1447\/2019\/03\/Macroinvert2.jpg?resize=300,300 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 717px) 100vw, 717px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/weeks\/\">Click here for more information on the Weeks lab<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Past Projects] Stephen C.
