Meta Identifier	GOGAinverts
Type of Data	Benthic macroinvertebrate sampling
Originator	Golden Gate National Recreation Area
Description	Collected aquatic macroinvertebrate data on Redwood Creek and eastern tributaries of Bolinas Lagoon using a standard serber sampler (1 sq. foot) and equal interval time sampling. Although analysis has some similarities to the California Stream Bioassessment Protocol (CSBP), the collection methods varied somewhat.
Area	Redwood Creek, Eastern Bolinas Lagoon tribs

Maint. and Update Freq.	Complete
Purpose	The purpose of the study was to evaluate the relative condition of the aquatic habitat, to begin to generate a species list of aquatic macroinvertebrates, to gauge the relative abundance of fish food organisms, and to test for associations of organisms and communities and habitat parameters.
Data Quality Information	Serber sampler may sample a smaller area than standard CSBP. GOGA personnel picked organisms then sent sample to Jon Lee, aquatic entomologist. Samples in 1995 and 1997 were in different months (Aug/Nov).
Use Constraints	Collections should be viewed as powerful in analysis between sites but not between years. Not directly comparable to CSBP samples from other streams.
Supplemental Information	Redwood Creek and Bolinas Lagoon tribs have also had studies on fish, habitat and water quality. See Fisheries Assessment for Bolinas Lagoon Tributaries Within the GGNRA, 1995-2000 for Bolinas Lagoon data.
