Do Erosion Control Blankets Change the pH of Soil?

CSEF · 2007 Earth & Planetary Sciences

Seamus M. O'Connor · St. John School, Encinitas, San Diego County

Overview

Objectives/Goals My science fair project is to see which erosion control blanket changes the pH of soil the most. Methods/Materials For my experiment I went around my yard gathering dirt. Then my mom gave me some erosion control blankets from work. I measured the pH of the soil from my back yard to determine the baseline pH level. I cut the erosion control blankets in circles and placed them in the cups. Then I watered my samples and checked the pH of the soil and recorded it in my journal.

Summary statement

The change of the pH in soil through erosion control blankets.

Help received

Would like to thank Mr. Kuhn my science teacher for helping me set up my project. I would also like to thank my Mom, Sarah O#Connor, for buying my supplies. Thomas O#Connor my dad for taking the pictures. And I would lastly like to thank my sister Taramarie O#Connor for letting me use her old science
