Chronicle
of Instream Flow Activities
The River System Management Section (RSMS) within the Midcontinent
Ecological Science Center, formerly part of the National Biological
Survey, is now part of the Biological Resources Division of the
U.S. Geological Survey. Many may recognize these folks as the Instream
Flow Group of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; developers of
the Instream Flow Incremental Method (IFIM). The mission of RSMS
is to provide information and technology for water resource management
and environmental decision makers to conserve and enhance river/reservoir
ecosystems.
One of the activities of RSMS is publication of the newsletter,
Chronicle of Instream Flow Activities. With the advent of
the World Wide Web and the ever increasing cost of postage, Chronicle
is now published only on the Web. Chronicle will address
recent developments in all aspects of instream flows such as assessment
methods, software updates, announcement of significant events, and
notification of IFIM-related courses. The current issue of Chronicle
is on the River Systems Management Section home page at:
http://www.mesc.usgs.gov/rsm

issues, subscribe to an automatic notification service by sending
