The overall size of the
observation site is 150 feet squared maybe a tad smaller, It is located off of
the fire trail entrance of Stulstaft park on Farm Hill road. It is next to the
creek that runs parallel to the fireroad path that goes along the back of the
park.
How much does the water level in this branch of the creek vary
throughout the year during the different seasons? What affect if any does the
nearby children’s play park have on the ecosystem of the creek area? Does the
area differ greatly inbetween the seasons or does it stay at the same level of
productivity year round?
The study area is split in half by a small clear flowing creek
in the middle of the sight with a small stream about 2 ft by 1 ft by 1ft. A
small hiking trail goes through one side of the site past one of the large
trees that originate in the creek and curve over the pathway. Next to the creek
is a small shelf of rock that does not have any plant life or dirt on it.
Driving Instructions: Take a
left out of the pool parking lot onto James, take James down to Iris, take a
left on iris. Take Iris to Jefferson take a right onto Jefferson. Take
Jefferson all the way till it becomes farm hill take it past McGarvey and
untill Stulstaft is on your left.
