This site is host for a
combination of streaming and archived video, fish
movement and water temperature data from various BRAVO
nodes. Node 1 is located on the Grand River near
Kitchener, Ontario, Canada and streams live underwater video
from cameras in the river bed along with temperature and
telemetry data from radio-tagged fish. Node 2 is
located inside a Denil fishway approximately 5 km
upstream from Node 1. Node 2b streams data from our fish
hatchery on the Grand River, Ontario. Node 3 is in Lake Opinicon, Ontario, Canada at the Queens University
Biological Station, Node 4 and Node 5 are in Cooney Creek, Montana,
USA,
Node 6 and Node 7 are located in Rock River, Wisconsin, USA,
Node 8 is monitoring a tropical marine reef aquarium in
Ontario, Canada. Node 9 has been deployed in the Saugeen
River near Walkerton, Ontario and will soon be online.
Node 10 has been built, tested
and will soon be deployed.
Click a location on the
map above to jump to realtime online underwater video
and sensor feeds. The
video collected by the BRAVO system is particularly
useful for long-term research objectives related to
inter-annual variation in fish migration patterns,
migration timing and habitat utilization and
reproductive behavior. The system has also been
proven to be useful for monitoring and observing
behavior of benthic organisms
such as mussels, crayfish, diving ducks, turtles and a
wide range of fish and aquatic invertebrate species.
