     "text": "The current study has four primary objectives. First, researchers will use an index of biological condition based on benthic macroinvertebrates developed by the ICPRB, the Chessie BIBI (\u201cChessie BIBI\u201d Index for Streams - ICPRB (potomacriver.org), and landscape data summarized with the SHEDs data set (Spatial Hydro-Ecological Decision System | SHEDS (ecosheds.org) to develop improved predictive models of stream condition for the entire watershed. Second researchers are working with providers of fish data (e.g, state, federal and local monitoring programs) to develop a compiled database of fish for the entire Chesapeake Bay watershed for use in an assessment of fish habitat. Third, this study will test improvements to models predicting fish habitat when using higher resolution data sources (e.g. 1:24,000) through development of joint pilot studies with NOAA. Fourth, the team is working with both biological datasets to identify stream reaches with long-term data for eventual use in analyses of status and trends. Under objectives one through three, researchers will use the summarized predictor data (i.e. catchment summaries) to develop models and make predictions of stream health and fish habitat based on future conditions using projected land use and climate scenarios. This project is aimed to assist the Chesapeake Bay Program\u2019s partners and stakeholders."
