| Short Description | |
| Description | These lessons and accompanying online tools will introduce students to water quality monitoring using real data. First, students need to understand how to access and interpret water quality data, and how to look for patterns and changes over time. Ultimately, they will examine the impacts of physical water quality factors on species that live in a given environment, using the Atlantic sturgeon as an example. The lessons deal primarily with the following water quality parameters: water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and salinity. However, students can use the online tools to extend their investigations by examining other parameters as well. The goal is for students to experience different kinds of data and data accessing tools, so that, by the end of the module, they can continue to explore data sets driven by their own inquiry. |
