From YouTube:

This video by Sarah Loboda, a graduate student of entomology at McGill University, shows Sarah and colleagues at work on the Northern Biodiversity Program (NDP). The aim of the NBP is to use a standardized sampling method in 12 sites across Canada’s North to document spatial and temporal patterns of insects diversity. The video shows the various sampling methods they used to collect aquatic and terrestrial insects in Schefferville (sweep net, malaise, pan traps, etc.). This video was submitted to the Open category of the 2012 ESA YouTube Your Entomology contest (seehttp://entsoc.org/entomology2012/youtube-contest).
