Announcement

Attention Community Scientists!

Texas Stream Team has officially released electronic monitoring forms for all trainings. Community scientists will have until July 31, 2026, to transition. After that, paper forms may still be used in the field or during trainings, but observations must be transcribed into the electronic platform for official submission. This transition will enhance data quality with built-in validations and speed up statewide data processing. Find direct links to each electronic monitoring form in the respective training sections below.

We have a few resources for you to make this transition easier:
