Stream Water Monitoring
Participants can expect:
Students will measure turbidity, dissolved oxygen, and temperature at the stream and discuss the importance of each. Then students will collect macroinvertebrates and calculate a biotic index. These basic measurements will give insight into the water quality of the stream.
