Omaru Creek

Testing Omaru Creek for -

I am going to find out: the differences in colour, smell and turbidity of Omaru Creek.

I am going to test this by: comparing different water samples from different locations along the creek.

Resources and equipment:

4 jars 5 buckets 5 string

Smell:

	Prediction	Observation
Sea water	I think it was Salty	It was actually Clear
Tap water	I think it was  Fresh	It was actually Fresh
Omaru Creek water by culvert	I think it was  Rotten Oysters	It was actually Rotten Oysters
Omaru Creek water by bridge	I think it was LIttled pinch of Salt	It was actually like pinch of salt

My conclusion (what I found out): Salt water is not actually salty it’s just a little pinch of salt.

Colour:

	Prediction	Observation
Sea water	I think it was White and Clear	It was actually Clear
Tap water	I think it would be Clear	It was actually Clear
Omaru Creek water by culvert	I think it would be Pinch of Green	It was actually Gray Green
Omaru Creek water by bridge	I think it would be Lightest Green	It was actually Lemonade

My conclusion (what I found out): the colour of the water was clear like the sea water

Turbidity:

	Prediction	Observation
Sea water	I think it will be cloudy	It was actually clear
Tap water	I think it will be clear	It was actually clear
Omaru Creek water by culvert	I think it will be muddy	It was actually quite clear
Omaru Creek water by bridge	I think it will be muddy	It was actually quite clear
