  1. Sherbrook Valley

  2. River Study.Measuring the width of the river.

  3. Measure the depth of the river at 6 equal spaces.

  4. At each point, collect a stone and measure its length and width

  5. Measure the speed or velocity of the river. • Measure 5 Meters along the river • Drop a cork into the river • Using a stop watch see how long it takes to travel 5 meters. • Speed = distance/time.

  6. Record the Information

  7. Slope and Vegetation Investigation. • Record major vegetation type. • Minor vegetation type • pH, soil moisture, light. • What is the area like?

  8. Measuring the Angle of the Slope. • The angle of the slope is measured using a clinometer. • A reading is taken every 15 Meters. • Starting from the edge of the river, up hill.

  9. Recording the Information.
