Introduction
The PASCO ME-6668 EcoZones System is designed to
help students model and understand the complex
interactions within and among different ecosystems. The
three clear acrylic EcoChambers are designed to
accommodate PASCO sensors, making qualitative and
quantitative measurements as easy as visual
observation.
Students can measure many aspects of the traditional
ecosystem—terrestrial, aquatic, and decomposition
chambers. Students can also use each chamber
individually by decoupling the chambers and
constructing a single biome.
