Field Trips
Watershed Lab/Cruise
 Grade 4-5
Four hours, $1595 for up to 45 participants
Students explore the science of watersheds during this 4-hour experience. In the lab, students learn scientific techniques
as they perform a fish dissection, conduct water chemistry tests, record weather data, examine global water distribution, and discover potential sources of
pollution. They complement their lab research onboard the R/V Sea Explorer, where they form research teams to test the
offshore nutrient levels, complete a bioassessment of the sea floor habitat, and examine the local plankton population .
