The USFS Center for Aquatic Technology Transfer (CATT) was
created in 1995 as a response to the growing need for research technologies
to be applied directly to management problems
-
CATT provides aquatic biologists and land managers with
research information and training needed to solve specific problems
-
Through on site visits, CATT biologists gain first hand knowledge
of specific conditions allowing them to design custom solutions to problems in order to meet land managers needs
-
By modifying inventory technology to meet managers specific needs,
survey costs are greatly reduced without sacrificing the statistical reliability required for project level evaluation and monitoring
-
Since inception in May 1995, the CATT has compiled an impressive
list of innovative solutions to resource problems with projects on multiple National Forests including the: Chattahoochee-Oconee,
Cherokee, Daniel Boone, George Washington-Jefferson, Caribbean, Monongahela,
White Mountain, Francis Marion-Sumter, and National Forests in North Carolina
