While at the creek we will collect data that will allow us to monitor the health of our creek ecosystem. This data will be used by future biology classes to draw hypotheses about population stability, identification of resident and visitor species, and overall water quality of the creek. This data will be made available to local agencies any anyone having access to the Internet. Listed below are the various research teams that collect data when visiting the Arroyo Del Valle Creek.
