Our research question was how the water’s quality changes throughout the year as we progress through the seasons?
We wanted the answer to this question as knowing how the seasons affect water quality as it can be beneficial to helping the environment
We collected data from 2 rivers in Onondaga County and 2 rivers in Oswego County, going to two spots along the river each once a month.
Our findings showed that the seasons of the year alter water quality.
