Results of last week’s (10/18-10/21) seining data! A large 65cm American Eel and 10cm Winter Flounder where caught.
Thanks so much to the volunteers from @regeneron who participated in a park restoration project at CURB as part of the Regeneron Day for Doing Good. The team replaced and repaired marsh fencing, cleared our marsh trail, and helped with weeding in the garden. #regenerond4dg #CURB #Yonkers #hudsonriver #volunteering
Here are the results from Saturday's public seining during the "Stewards for Yonkers" event! #hudsonriver #seining #Yonkers #catfish #fish
Day in the Life of the Hudson 2021! Today at CURB we conducted several samplings as a part of a river wide event to collect data on the Hudson river. We seined, sampled water quality, sediment, took account of the weather and measured the speed of the current (15 cm/sec in fact!)

Thank you to everyone who came and helped with all of the sampling today!
Thanks to all of our friends and partners who joined us on Saturday for our "Stewards for Yonkers" event! It was a great day of environmental action along the Hudson River!
This event was made possible by generous support from @conedison. #hudsonriver #volunteers #yonkers #community #research #science
This week’s data!
This week we had help from two school groups. Our Tuesday morning seine was a massive catch, one of the largest at CURB. Thursday we caught a very large American eel.
Join us this Saturday for an Environmental Day of Action along the Hudson River. Activities will include public seining, water quality monitoring, gardening, and more! #hudsonriver #yonkers #research #science #community #westchester #fish
Here at CURB we observed the salinity of the river decreased, driving away the grass shrimp and moon and comb jellies that were present just last week. We still had some interesting catches this week: The Naked Goby as well as a fish we had trouble identifying at first. We concluded that it’s a Golden Shiner, a freshwater fish. Swipe to see a photo of it!
