South Twin Lakes: Are They Helpful Or Harmful?

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

This summer one scientific thing I did was use a water mat on Lake Winnipesaukee. A water mat is a giant raft that floats on the surface of the water. It's constructed from the same styrofoam type material that a pool noodle is made out of. It is extremely versatile and can be used in many different ways. The way that I enjoyed using it the most was to jump from our pontoon boat onto the mat. I would make my way to the edge of the boat, steady myself, and leap, landing directly on top of the green float. The impact of the jump made my feet feel sore for a few seconds. When I was ready, I would hurdle myself off the mat and climb back onto the boat. While this activity does require a lot of skill, it requires a lot of science as well.

Located on the northern side of Dakota County, Sunfish Lake, Minnesota, is a small community that is proud of its legacy. The community treasures its solitude yet understands being apart of the thriving Dakota County. 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.

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

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.

Can This Lake Be Restored? Now known as the ‘phantom’ lake, the Tulare Lake is a perfect example of one of all environmental casualties that have occured because of mining and farming. This once incredibly rich in wildlife lake is located in the San Joaquin Valley. West of the Mississippi, the Tulare Lake was once so big it could stretch over 690 square miles across the Central Valley. Fed by four major rivers and a handful of smaller ones with headwaters in the Sierra Nevada, the lake was once 60 miles from tip to tip and 36 miles wide in the center.

The Carolina Day Key Middle School had an overnight in September 2015 at a place called Camp Timberlake for Boys so everyone would get to know each other better. On our last day we went on a canoeing trip in the French Broad River and some of our canoes flipped over! One of them was Lacy, Aubrey and Mr. Flamini’s canoe. Lacy and Aubrey were in the canoe, and then Mr. Flamini tried to get in….. and the whole thing flipped. They haven’t even started! Then, about ¾ the way into the ride, Nick, Mac, and Michael's canoe flipped over as well, and they were in one of the most calm parts of the river. The guide had to canoe all the way back up, against the current, and help them get it back right side up. I was in front of mostly everyone except for

“Higher Education” explores how Perry Reese Jr., driven by his sense of equality, overcomes the burdens of racial and cultural barriers in a non-diverse community. He brings his culture into the Amish community, and he educates them about his own culture. He “annihilated what people here had been brought up to keep,” and he allows boys and girls inside his house to “grab a soda, have a seat, eat some pizza, watch a game, play cards, Ping-Pong, or Nintendo… and talk” (24). By destroying what the Amish community had been brought up to keep, their space, he starts to show them what his culture is like; the Amish were insular and kept their own space like they were taught to, but Perry breaks the barrier between his and the Amish cultures. Perry

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

Did you know that lake superior is the deepest, biggest and the clearest. Lake Superior is the largest of the Great Lakes of North America.

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.

Camp Twin Lakes is a camp that strives to provide a fun camp experience for children and adults with various illnesses or disabilities.

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

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

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
