A study of life in the Four-Mile Creek range over time

This topic submitted by Jocie Ellis ( ellisje@muohio.edu ) on 1/23/03. [ Rivers Team: Jocie Ellis-Section: Garrison/Green]

I am interested in investigating the life forms surrounding four-mile creek, and research how the biota has changed throughout time, and how it has affected the history of this area. This project would look at the cultural, social, economic, chemical, and historical aspects of the creek. I noticed there are a great variety of fossils in certain areas of four-mile creek, and I would like to learn more about such things. I am interested, in particular, in how american indians, in this area, interacted with other life forms. I think examining fossils, monitering other life forms, testing water, and learning about the area would be essential to the success of such a project. It would be a challenge to synthesize all of these components, but I think it could work with the proper attention and care.
