This experiment was designed to test what the limiting nutrient was in Loughberry Lake, as well as examine the trophic state of the lake. In order to find out what the limiting nutrient was, we performed a few different tests. We began with a secchi disk test to see the transparency of the water. Then, we took water samples that we later used to test the turbidity levels of the water after adding varying amounts of phosphorous and nitrogen. Phosphorous was the limiting nutrient in the lake,…

Kick seining is a way for people to find aquatic macroinvertebrates in the water. There are three different ways of Kick seining within a creek. Once a creek is found you can begin. The first way is to have someone holding the net and the other person walks towards the net and kicks up the water and rocks. This is so that the organisms at the bottom of the river are pushed up into the net to be looked at. Secondly, there is the two person way to kick seining. This is where there is one person…
It can not be determined that ammonium sulfate can be used to find the LC50 of Daphnia Magna. In every trial, there was no data that was consistent or logical to be used to determine an accurate LC50. The LC50 is the point at which the concentration of a pollutant is lethal to 50% of the organisms. Static toxicity tests occur when the aquatic organisms are exposed to the same pollutant concentration for the duration of the test. The data in the first two trials had mostly 100% death rates…

continues to decrease minimally and the water supply is running low also droughts can lead up to dehydration. If protecting much of Florida’s wetlands continues, the water quality would clear up, all wildlife will be more protected, and planned construction for urban and residential abodes will be diminished. First of all, water quality is running low due to causes of pollution. The plan to evaluate environmental sources can possibly affect the restoration progress. It took 20 years to restore…
Water pollution is a very pressing issue in the world today. Humans need water to survive. The earth is covered in water, nearly seventy percent of the surface is water. However about ninety-seven percent of that water is salt water, unsafe for drinking. The remaining three percent is what makes up the world’s freshwater. Of that small percentage of freshwater, about sixty-nine percent consists of glaciers or icecaps, thirty percent as groundwater, and nearly only zero point three percent…
