Whats Up... stream?

On Tuesday, the gang all traveled up the creek to survey the water above the dam. We wanted to test our hypotheses that we made earlier in the week. These hypotheses involved the differences in water quality from above and below the dam. Along with water chemistry, we also surveyed the microorganisms in the creek so then we could compare the quantity and diversity to below the dam. We did so using a kick net method as shown below.
