Aquatic macro-invertebrate populations were monitored in Bridal Veil Creek at the study site, as well as in several other streams for independent student projects. All collected bug data is included in data sheet. Insects were collected through kicking in place for one minute in four locations at a cross section of the stream. Data includes insect tolerance levels (low numbers most sensitive), functional feeding group and biodiversity indices for each data set using the Shannon-Weiner Biodiversity Index.
