There are four components of the MWEE Stream Study Kit: chemical, biological, climate/weather and soils. Each part has various equipment and testing devices designed to complement your classroom lessons. It would be wise to borrow related equipment and gather as much data as possible per site visit. For example, borrowing the chemical and biological components together would allow for an enhanced experience at a water-based site.
