Citizen Science- Nature's Notebook

     The Swift Creek Reservoir is a popular place for neighborhoods, parks, boating, and recreation. However, it is important to be aware of invasive species that pose a threat to the health of the reservoir and the patrons who use the reservoir for recreation and for drinking water. Over the past decade or so, the Swift Creek Reservoir has struggled with an invasive species called hydrilla ( hydrilla verticillata ). Check out my  presentation  about hydrilla in the Swift Creek Reservoir and learn what to look for and the dangers the species may cause.

  My first project was to map the Swift Creek Reservoir Watershed. Check out my   Slide Show  presentation including data, maps, and information about the watershed!
