Climbing Temperatures Adversely Impact Brook Trout
Recent research from 皇冠大全买球’s 淡水研究所 finds that water temperatures affect certain behaviors in a cold-water predator, especially when in the presence of one that prefers warmer waters.
Where 研究, Learning and Service Come Together
在萨斯奎哈纳, we are committed to sustainability and there is no greater testament to that commitment than our Center for Environmental Education & 研究 (CEER) — our on-campus field station.
The 87-acre CEER is home to our 蜂房, 淡水研究所, 太阳能电池阵列, ecology research plots, walking trails and riparian buffer restoration site.
在CEER，您可以:
- Say hello to the flock of sheep that help keep our 14-acre, 12,000-panel 太阳能电池阵列 in working order.
- Protect pollinators by caring for the honeybees in our apiary. 你甚至可以享受一些蜂蜜!
- Intern or conduct research on watershed health at the 淡水研究所 or with one of our many partner organizations.
- Plant trees to maintain our riparian buffer, which is helping to keep sediment out of the Susquehanna River upstream of the Chesapeake Bay.
- Participate in outdoor labs during your ecology or environmental science course.
Susquehanna and the CEER are walking distance from the Susquehanna River — the Chesapeake Bay’s largest tributary and the longest river on the east coast. We are also surrounded by some of the best farmland and forests Pennsylvania has to offer.
