The CZO and TeenShaleNetwork researchers geared up on a July morning  with five State High School earth science teachers to demonstrate water quality and monitoring techniques.  With the new academic year fast approaching, the teachers wanted hands-on learning in the field prior to the first fall field trip with students.  Penn State scientists demonstrated how to gauge stream flow, how to install sensors for time-series measurements, and how to take water quality samples for laboratory analysis, as well as use of a multi-parameter hand-held meter for instantaneous data collection of pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved solids, and conductivity.    The project aims to build upon last year’s progress by expanding the network to three locations along a reach of Black Moshannon Creek, from the dam to the confluence.
