Project:

How Varying Water Levels Affect Surrounding Biodiversity - Identified Through DNA Barcoding
Students:
Katelyn Liu, Olivia Park
School:
Tenafly High School,
Mentors:
Alan Brandstaedter

Abstract:

Through the process of DNA barcoding we will identify the species of similar looking plant life around a local pond. Through water testing different locations on this pond we will study the correlation between different water levels and the biodiversity of surrounding plant life.
