WELCOME TO BIOSPHERE!
Biosphere mainly goes to streams and creeks to test the water quality. They then study the organisms present in the water and determine if the area has a healthy ecosystem or not.
The places that they have gone to include Elizabeth Furnace Creek (which had very clean water and was very healthy) and Abrams Creek (which represented the contrary, having very dirty water).
The Biosphere students all seem to love it. One student said that her favorite destination was "Happy Creek," simply because the name made her feel happy! The students really enjoyed being able to be at the creeks and streams to see the difference between clean and polluted water first-hand. One boy had this to say about Biosphere: "It's really cool!"
