Undergraduate Shermans Creek Research

The Dickinson College Environmental Studies Dept. "Analysis and Management of Aquatic Environments" class did a class project during the Fall of 2001 on the Shermans Creek Watershed. As an entire class project, the overall health of Shermans creek was assessed using various chemical and biological parameters. In addition to this entire class project, small groups did individual projects. The following pages present the results of those individual research projects.
