Interactive map for presentation of water testing results
The 3D Interactive EnviroScape Ecological Restoration® allows you to explore the functions of various wetland types.
• Demonstrate how wetlands and floodplain management can improve the environment!
• Experiment with restoring the environment to reduce the negative effects of unplanned development.
• Demonstrate flooding on the floodplain.
• Restore and construct wetlands to manage stormwater, reducing flooding and pollution.
• Explore wetland types and their unique functions and values.
Two demonstration styles are included in the guide, with the optional story-style demo, explore how wetlands and vegetation function in the natural environment, pollution and flooding after unplanned development, and how ecological restoration benefits the environment. Experiment with unplanned development, demonstrate flooding and pollution, take a water sample and move to restoring, creating, and protecting wetlands right on the model. Rain again, after restoration, take a water sample and let your students compare the results!
This unique model emphasizes the importance of wetlands to the environmental quality in our communities. Demonstrate the water absorption and water holding capacity of wetlands. Take a water sample visually experience the improvement in water quality, experiment with the impact of wetlands or the lack of wetlands upon flooding and erosion, Restore wetlands. All wetlands are clearly depicted on the model.
