Status: Past Project
Understanding the benefits freshwater tidal marshes and the challenges they face from climate change means exploring them in the classroom and field. We designed a series of lessons to help students learn how this unique wetland removes water pollutants, and how they can reduce their carbon footprint and safeguard this ecosystem.
