Abstract
This largely methodological paper describes the collection of quantitative samples of micro-organisms and the accumulation of physical data from a pond over a year. Examples are given of the manner in which final-year degree students have used some of the materials and data as a basis for ecological projects involving mainly the algae. Students' results and conclusions are illustrated. Apparatus and reagents are described and specified.
