Field Trips
Watershed Science Overnight
 Grade 5 (grade 4 adaptable)
Seventeen hours, $2700 for up to 45 participants
In this overnight program, students embark on an in-depth exploration of the science of
watersheds. They examine the complex relationships present within watersheds. Students
learn scientific techniques as they perform a fish dissection, conduct water
chemistry tests, work on a biological assessment, and record weather
data in our laboratory. Student research teams conduct a soil study
of samples from within the Dana Point Harbor. The groups compare
and analyze the data in order to assess current conditions. In the
morning, their land-based examinations are complemented by
research activities offshore aboard the R/V Sea Explorer.
