Lake Huron is among the largest fresh water sources in the States located in North America.

It was a balmy July morning when my family and I drove out to Lycoming College to begin my week at PFEW. An uneasy feeling set in as I realized that I will be surrounded by strangers in an uncommon environment for a whole seven days. Adding onto this stress was the fact that I have never been away from my parents for more than one night. Upon my arrival, all of the camp participants were ushered to a large auditorium and given a welcome presentation. Looking around at all the unfamiliar faces, I felt the urge to call my parents and avoid

The complex interactions and interdependence are evident to the Tri-lakes ecosystem because they shape the ecosystem and are needed due to every organism being dependent on each other An example of an interaction is the predator-prey interaction is with the largemouth bass and the alagi . This evident to the the Tri-lakes ecosystem because if the largemouth bass population increases, than the alagi population decreases with an overpopulated largemouth bass until a devastating decrease in population. Another example of interaction is the predator-prey relationship between humans and largemouth bass. The humans hunt the largemouth bass for fun or either for food. Either way if one organism goes extinct it will affect each animal to either starving

Tuggerah Lakes have been a popular commercial and recreational fishing venue for more than a century. Not only have they been one of the most important producers of estuarine fish in NSW, but have attract many tourists to the area each year.

Located on the northern side of Dakota County, Sunfish Lake, Minnesota, is a small community that is proud of its legacy.

The city is bordered by Highways 110 to the north, 3 to the east, 60th Street West/Peiper Road to the south, and Delaware Avenue to the west. I-494 runs through the city as well.

The Northern Territory, which covers over one-sixth of the Australian continent, contains a variety of habitats in which numerous species of wildlife live. These habitats range from the tropical north or Top End to the arid desert regions in the south. Several feral animals, including large mammals, inhabit these regions. Feral species in the Northern Territory include introduced wild animals such as rabbits, foxes, cane toads and deer. They also include livestock include buffalo, cattle, horses, donkey, camels and pigs.

located in Newell; largest of ten relocation camps; opened May 27, 1942, last camp to close on March 20, 1946; peak population was 18,789; located six miles south of the California-Oregon border; camp encompassed 7,400 acres, most used for agricultural activities; July 1943: Tule Lake designated as segregation center for internees who wished to be repatriated to Japan or who had not responded to the satisfaction of the U.S. Government on its Loyalty Questionnaire; due to program of segregation, Tule Lake's history is more heavily marked by human tragedy and inner disturbance than other relocation camps; a large semicircular red stone called the Tule Lake Historic Monument marker is located on California Highway 139 in

In the 1960s Lake Claremont was a rubbish tip until the council built a golf course. In 2009 the golf course was closed after a referendum. The Town of Claremont (TOC) made a management plan to return the area to native bush. Lake Claremont in is located right between Claremont and Swanbourne and is a seasonal lake. It hosts a large variety of flora and fauna. There are approximately 70 hectares in the areas around Lake Claremont. Lake Claremont is a conservation category wasteland and a designated Bush Forever site. One of the biggest issues that Lake Claremont is dealing with is the destruction of habitat. The Friends of Lake Claremont have said that “Prior to European settlement the lake was a

Abstract: Microorganism need to live in ideal conditions so they can grow. This experiment was performed to determine if there was a greater number of microorganisms in Winthrop lake than Winthrop wetlands. We determined this hypothesis because the lake was bigger. We also made the hypothesis that the pH level of the lake was going to be higher than the wetlands. We tested out the hypothesis by going out to Winthrop lake and wetlands and collecting samples of water. Back in the lab, we examined the samples under a microscope and recorded all the organisms we could find on Excel. Also, we tested the pH levels of the

Before school started this year, I participated in the Common Ground program as a ground crew member. During the weeklong event, I had the opportunity to not only introduce the incoming freshmen to Fremont, but to each other as well. Each day consisted of various activities, led by myself, the other ground crew members, and the adult facilitators of the program. The activities included multiple small group discussions that were focused on breaking down stereotypes in order to make the Fremont community more tolerant, as well as games meant to allow for the freshmen to discuss issues such as gender, friendship, and ethnicity. My tasks varied from introducing students with common interests to each other to make sure everyone had someone to sit

The monitoring program includes field and laboratory components to identify sources of materials (nutrients, sediment, microorganisms, and chemicals) to the lake, evaluate in-lake water quality conditions, and examine the interactions between Onondaga Lake and the Seneca River. Onondaga County’s trained technicians collect water quality and biological samples at a number of key locations in the watershed. Streams flowing into Onondaga Lake are monitored to estimate the annual input of water and materials including nutrients, sediment, salts, and bacteria. Samples are collected upstream of the lake to help pinpoint sources of pollution. Accurate estimates of inflows are a critical component of the AMP, since they underlie many of the management

Contaminated sediments are a significant problem in the Great Lakes basin. To reduced the discharge of toxic and persistent chemicals to the Great Lakes we must concentrations of contaminants in the bottom of rivers and harbors and have to raised considerable concern about potential risks to aquatic organisms, wildlife, and

Camp Twin Lakes is a camp that strives to provide a fun camp experience for children and adults with various illnesses or disabilities. While they receive a considerable amount of applicants, the majority of these applicants are white college-age females. Camp Twin Lakes would like to diversify their staff. Diversity is a priority for Camp Twin Lakes because of the vast diversity of the campers they serve. Camp Twin Lakes would like the diversity of the summer staff to be a reflection of the diversity among their campers. Currently Camp Twin Lakes receives approximately 150 applications and they hire 80 individuals. Out of those 80 individuals hired, only 10 are persons of color. Ineffective marketing is the main reason why they are not receiving

The mass majority of individuals past the age of thirty seem to trivialize problems that a plethora of American youth suffer from today. Simply put, the French author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry describes it best in his book, The Little Prince, in the quote, “All grown-ups were once children…but only few of them remember it.” We are inordinately exhausted from classes and extracurricular activities that promise college appeal, we are emotionally inept from the expectations of our family’s and peers, and we are despondent from the inability to caste away anxiety filled doubt at a future that seems implausible. My greatest contribution to my school and my community is my dedication to establish compassion and comfort for an improved quality of life. The known establishment of my human gifts to my region came about from my own experiences that caused a realization that various students in my community feel outcasted by our society. By creating a persona that promotes nondiscriminatory listening while also creating three clubs that perform as a safe space, I believe my greatest attribute to my small town of Forest City will endure the hardships of time.
