Welcome to the index for

This year we explored water resource and pollution concepts in many types of water systems. We visited the following:

Estuaries and nearshore waters
Commencement Bay

Lakes
Lake Josephine
American Lake
Lake Washington
Green Lake

Streams and Rivers
Big Beef Creek
Hylebos Creek
Chico Creek

Wetlands
Nisqually Wildlife Refuge
Swan Creek restoration project
West Milton restoration project

	Streams and Rivers
	Wetlands

Students' websites were organized into these four catagories so that they could compare and discuss the water quality parameters of urban versus rural sites and of natural versus recently restored sites for each catagory.
