studying the contents of the canyon's water, a project funded by an $8,000 state grant to th Unlversl

of San Diego. Sentlnel/Doranno Dill W t r study the start of more research? Teco o e Creek is the site of USD investigation

The study marks GSD's first official involvement in the ca- nyon, though the laboratory ha conducted similar studies elsewhere and numerous students have descended into the ca- nyon to pursue individual projects. Lab supervisor Jeannie Christopher considers this summer's researh to be "a relatively small tudy, a prelimanry look-see." "We·re looking at the basic parameters of whether or not it's a healthy environment." she aid . Christopher will supervise the undergraduate fieldworkers . Samples will be taken from four sites at various limes during the summer and analyzed for the hardness. alkalinity, dissolved and suspended solids, nitrates, phosphates. pesticides and other substances. Fieldworkers will also conduct a descriptive survey of the microscopic aquatic life in the canyon's water. ites will be selected immediately, Chirstopher said. Results will be ready by September. Christopher remains cautious about the study's implications. "Looking at a waler sample doesn't give you a big clue as to the real toxicity of a pool of water .'' she said. Changes in a pool's con- tent can occur due to stagnation as well as presence of toxic chemicals . " Pollution is a relative term. " she added. illustrating how fer- tilizer wastes that might be unhealthy for one form of life could be very healthy for plankton , for example. Christopher did admit that fieldworkers were looking for ''potentially suspect sites ." Though fieldworkers will be looking for runoff points that would likely make content-rich sampling sites. the scope of the study does not include tracing impurities to their sources. The water quality study has been slated for summer, Christopher added, because the water in the canyon during the dry season will give her group of scientists a better indicator of what's happening there on a constant basis, unlike the wet-season runoff, which pours into Mission Bay. /
