This NOAA activity handout aligns with the Estuaries 101 MS curriculum on oysters in estuaries. Students gather data on monthly average salinity and rainfall over a two-year period to measure oyster population size changes in Aransas and Copano Bays. The activity includes links to data tables and student directions.
