The above picture shows the depth of the Ocumulgee at various spots throughout the river. We used two sticks with a string attached to either end and measured the depth every ten feet approximately.
This last picture shows the various spots throughout the river where we sifted sand and looked for clams. The number in the circles represents the number of clams that were found at each spot.
This lab was a great experience because it allowed us to get out of the classroom and explore parts of Macon that I personally have never been to. Being out in the river was a lot of fun as well because it's not something you do everyday and it was a great day to enjoy nature.
