  • Connecticut Floodplains
    This video tours the lower Connecticut River floodplain and examines its natural history at a level suitable for Advanced Placement (AP) Environmental Science courses. It considers the development of the system over time, explores how the physical environment shapes the biological environment, and reviews the principal flora and fauna present in the floodplain ecosystem.

  • Beaches
    This video investigates the Napatree Point, Rhode Island barrier beach and examines its natural history at a level suitable for Advanced Placement (AP) Environmental Science courses. It considers the development of the system over time, explores how the physical environment shapes the biological environment, and reviews the principal flora and fauna present in the beach ecosystem.

  • Bogs
    This video investigates two types of bogs that occur in southern New England: northern-associated black spruce bogs and southern-associated Atlantic Whitecedar bogs. It examines their comparative natural history at a level suitable for Advanced Placement (AP) Environmental Science courses. It considers the development of the system over time, explores how the physical environment shapes the biological environment, and reviews the principal flora and fauna present in these ecosystems.
