The scores
are out of a possible 50 where anything
10-24 is low biological integrity, 25-39
is moderate biological integrity, and
40+ is high biological integrity. These
scores are site specific, and may vary
from reach to reach, but combined with
other sites' data gives an overall view
of the stream's integrity. We definitely
have an upward trend going here. After
a few more years we will have enough
data to see more trends. In the meantime,
we are busy trying to figure out what
this data means in comparison to all
our other data that shows a healthy creek
here near our school.
