CABIN is a national biomonitoring program by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) to assess freshwater ecosystems; primarily stream and river habitats. It was developed to provide a standardized sampling protocol and a recommended assessment for determining aquatic ecosystem conditions. CABIN training provides the tools necessary for users to conduct consistent comparable and scientifically credible assessments of streams. Results provide rationale to direct policy and planning efforts. It is the most widely used protocol in Canada applied by federal, provincial, and municipal governments, community groups, and industry. The STREAM project uses eDNA metabarcoding to analyze benthic samples collected by community-based water monitors faster, cheaper and more accurately.
