We (explain or summarize what you did in your experiment)

We took the water quality of Chimacum Creek.


My claim is

My claim is the macros and the fish. Fish are obviously thriving looking at how many we caught this year. The creek is also a very sustainable place for macros as we have a lot of pollution sensitive macros in or waters


My evidence is

D.O. is 9.6 mg/L

Average pH is 6.2

Water Temp 51.3

Turbidity 33.7

NTU’s average 210 gal/s

Conductivity is 117.9

These are all good numbers for aquatic species.


I think this happened because

The creek has been like this for AT LEAST 20 years.


My data supports my claim because

All the data that we got from testing our creek matches up with the requirements for fish and other aquatic life.

These are all pictures of the work we did this year!

The top left graph is a data graph. It is the Dissolved Oxygen levels over the last 20 years.

The poster on the right is the poster we made for the youth summit. We presented it in the sharing circles.

Lastly, the bottom left. That is when my team and I presented our posters.
