Pre-Interim " Shakedown Cruise For more information on this learning opportunity contact: Dr. Terrence Marsh is handling the academic aspects Contact him via e-mail or phone 630.637.5183 Dr. Jeffrey Bjorklund is handling the travel and equipment aspects Contact him via e-mail or phone 630.637.5195 Comments or questions on this page can be addressed to tgm@noctrl.edu This page was last updated on January 28, 2002 As many as 18 students will travel with Drs. Bjorklund and Marsh in two vans on a three-week trip to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. We will leave Naperville early on Saturday morning, Nov. 24th, and spend Saturday and Sunday driving to the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory in Ocean Springs, MS. We will spend our first days becoming familiar with the GCRL facility and studying some of the more important processes of the estuarine ecosystem. Students will also begin deciding on individual research projects for the balance of our stay at the facility. While at GCRL we will stay in the dormitory, use the cafeteria to prepare meals, and have the use of a laboratory/classroom and access to adjacent field sites. We will also have access to the library, opportunities to talk to researchers on the full-time staff, and be able to visit the Marine Education Center in nearby Biloxi. After two full weeks of study at GCRL we will spend two days in New Orleans where we will be able to experience one of the most unique cities in North America. Following our stay in New Orleans we will return to Naperville over the last two days of the trip.

Readable and basic enough to be used as text, it is also detailed and thorough enough to serve as a standard reference. Covers physical and chemical aspects of estuaries, the biology and ecology of key organisms, the flow of organic matter through estuaries, and human interactions, such as the environmental impact on estuaries of fisheries.

68. Technical Report "Estuary-Net" During the project, students learn about variables involved in estuarine ecology,how these variables relate to one another, and how they affect water quality http://www.mathematik.uni-kassel.de/didaktik/DataSharing/ESTUARY/Estuary.html

Estuary Net A. Summary 1. The System The Estuary project is concerned with monitoring estuaries, which is an important aspect of protecting and improving the environment. Water quality of an estuary is determined by a complex interaction of chemical, biological and physical processes and includes factors such as temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and pH. For example, respiration decreases dissolved oxygen, produces CO2, which in turn increases the acidity of the water (i.e., lowers pH). Decreasing the temperature of water increases solubility of oxygen. This complex system is influenced by a number of external variables. For example, the daily variation between day and night affecting air temperature, amount of light and heat energy that is available for the estuary. seasonal variations in these external variables the periodically varying tides specific events such as pollution, thunderstorms, sudden climate changes etc. For more information see Introduction 2. Learning Goals The major objective of Estuary Net is that high school students come to understand the scientific process and its contribution to solving real-world problems. During the project, students learn about variables involved in estuarine ecology, how these variables relate to one another, and how they affect water quality under ideal laboratory conditions. Using this knowledge, the students, proceeding like scientists, develop hypotheses concerning relationships and time dependent variations in real estuaries. For instance, the students might predict a daily periodic variation of dissolved oxygen from their knowledge that the amount of photosynthesis in an estuary is influenced by the daily variation of available light. These hypotheses are then tested and eventually modified by means of checking them with real data on estuaries. Students can ideally use this same approach to solve authentic problems related to estuaries, including environmental control and monitoring.
