Salt of the Earth

Doctor Lenny will be offering a chemistry course online on Salinity in conjunction with an oceanography class at Reedsport High School. If you would like to learn about salts, water chemistry and saltwater mixing in estuaries, you can leave me a note here and I'll provide details. The science project at the end is to measure salinity in the Umpqua seasonally to see how far the tidal influence extends. I have a lecture room set-up with the details - http://www.schoolenrichment.org/lecturehall/ . There will be a nominal cost, and we can set up similar projects in other areas (well, not inland - sorry). More details provided soon. High school level - one month duration, with an occasional follow-up, no credits offered except at RHS.
