Abstract
  • An interactive map of important watersheds in the United States was created for use as a teaching tool in an estuarine ecology class. Figures and explanations of important factors influencing river ecology were created using data downloaded from the U.S. Geologic Survey. This interface serves as a visualization of biological, chemical, and physical components of river ecology. An assignment for students in an upper-division undergraduate Estuarine Ecology class was created. Feedback from experts in the biogeochemical field and from the students who completed the assignment was documented, and the interface will be modified for future use in a science-museum setting.
