Workshop participants take readings using
an Electronic pH meter.

Goal: To elevate the profile and credibility of trained
volunteer monitors and volunteer-collected data. These focused studies are
often comparison studies where DRN compares volunteer analyzed data with
data collected by a laboratory. The Manatawny Dam Removal Study involving
DRN and the Patrick Center for Environmental Research, Academy of Natural
Sciences is an example of work done under this initiative.
Volunteer Requirement: Dependent on project requirements.
Studies are often short-term but very extensive. This can be a great opportunity
for college students seeking course credit or internships.
