VCE Environmental Science

As part of their Unit 1 coursework, the VCE Environmental Science class investigated the patterns of distribution of animals and plants on the Barwon Heads rock platform using transect lines and quadrats. Students also had the opportunity to compare the marine life found on the Barwon Heads sandstone rock platform to that found on the basalt boulder rock platform in the region. The data gathered was then discussed further at the aquarium at the Marine Discovery Centre, and in class.
