The students of the ESY 12 class have completed the data collection for the aquatic productivity lab. The students placed water samples containing an algae population in several water bottles. There were light bottles, dark bottles, and several bottles with mesh screens to partially block the sunlight. The image shows the students testing the oxygen levels of each bottle using our new oxygen probe. The oxygen data will be used to determine the productivity of each bottle's algae.
