FLOW (Follow and Learn about the Ocean and Wetlands

Amigos de Bolsa Chica’s FLOW (Follow and Learn about the Ocean and Wetlands) Program is a unique hands-on learning opportunity for students to experience a coastal wetland ecosystem through its most fundamental elements, water quality and plankton. Community Scientists guide students to increase their awareness of phytoplankton’s importance and examine an array of related topics such as the effects of urban runoff on the watershed, harmful algal blooms, and the impacts of climate change on the ocean food web.
