- Synopsis
- A simulation of biological water quality monitoring of an inland water system on the Seven-Trent. Students interactively sample the macro invertebrate populations, use a key to identify the samples and then investigate species diversity. This information is used to look at the effect of water pollution on the invertebrate populations and also on fish stocks.
