“Our mission is to enhance ecosystem functioning within the central Ohio landscape by promoting the return of ecosystems to a more natural state (e.g., restoring habitat). We aim to accomplish this through conducting on-the-ground restoration work and sharing and disseminating knowledge regarding ecological restoration among members of the OSU and broader Columbus communities. We organize and participate in restoration-related professional development and service-learning activities, such as restoration project management (including hands-on native plantings and invasive plant removals), research, and workshops. SER@OSU membership is open to anyone in the OSU community, including graduate and undergraduate students.”

“TerrAqua is an affiliated student organization of the Water Management Association of Ohio at The Ohio State University. We are aligned with the School of Environment and Natural Resources, enrolling our members in activities related to water quality. Please use this site to find information regarding common activities, upcoming events, membership, or contact information.
Every year TerrAqua participates in CLAM Training and Sampling. CLAM, or Citizen Lake Awareness and Monitoring, is a type of data collection used to improve water quality in various Ohio lakes and watersheds. Collecting CLAM data consists of using a secchi disk, a thermometer, and a color strip to analyze different water characteristics. CLAM Sampling is held at Hidden Lake every two weeks between the months of April and October.
TerrAqua also participates in Macroinvertebrate Sampling at the Park of Roses each year. Like CLAM Sampling, biological indicators are used to analyze water quality in nearby rivers, lakes, and streams as well. Becoming a certified data collector is very useful for many science-related fields and looks great on a resume!
In the past, TerrAqua has toured a Coral Reef Farm, the Mollusk Department of the Museum of Biological Diversity, and behind the scenes at the Columbus Zoo. We strive to put on fun events throughout the year while gaining professional experience and skills necessary for your time at Ohio State and beyond!”
