ISO 10870:2012

Water quality — Guidelines for the selection of sampling methods and devices for benthic macroinvertebrates in fresh waters

This International Standard specifies criteria for the selection of sampling methods and devices (operation and

performance characteristics) used to evaluate benthic macroinvertebrate populations in fresh waters (rivers,

canals, lakes, and reservoirs). The methods and devices considered in this International Standard are suitable

for sampling all major components of the benthic assemblage. They are not suitable for sampling meiofauna.
