Habitat


In 1996, the Rouge Project performed an evaluation of habitat in the Rouge River Watershed. Over 80 habitat monitoring stations were established. The purpose of the study was to identify types of aquatic habitat present and evaluate habitat quality along the river. For riparian systems, habitat assessment includes the collection and evaluation of biological measures and instream and streamside measurements to document chemical and physical characteristics.
