During this diverse 2-session program, the students do research on the mud flats and in the fieldwork center. On the flats, they study the ecology of the Wadden Sea World Heritage site. This includes ebb and flood currents, the influence of the tides on life in the Wadden Sea and the various human interests and influences in the wadden region. By performing simple sampling techniques at various spots, they discover how rich life is in the Wadden Sea. Using a fork, push nets, sedimentation tubes and a sieve, they literally dive into the mud. In the fieldwork center, the students study the collected samples with the help of a (binocular) microscope. The program concludes with presentations from the students, in which they share their newly acquired knowledge with their classmates.<\/strong><\/p>\n
