The collection of organisms in stream ecosystems all contribute to a stream's metabolism. We seek to understand how the rates and patterns of metabolism vary within and across streams. Current efforts include data collection and synthesis for streams across the US. We hope to foster a global effort to harness new and inexpensive sensor technologies to measure the pulse of streams all over the planet.
