Limnology (Water) Study

    Students participate in a day-long water quality and limnology study that provides comparisons between wetland and lake ecosystems. They study the biodiversity of different water bodies and link their findings to abiotic water quality parameters. We also discuss potential careers with Parks and other careers that use the skills learned during the study.
