DESCRIPTION |
From alpine lakes and streams to the Great Salt Lake and meandering rivers to ephemeral wetlands, Utah has a diversity of aquatic systems that interact within watersheds.
- You will learn about how these types of waterways interact within a local watershed, and experience a selection of these habitats firsthand.
Utah's aquatic and wetland ecosystems are filled with robust ecological communities that are well-adapted to wet, ephemeral, or saline environments.
- You will learn how to evaluate a watershed's health using water chemistry assessments and by surveying aquatic life.
