The Aquatic Research Facility
The Rensselaer Aquatic Laboratory, located off campus at Tech Park, offers a tremendous facility for conducting aquatic experiments under a wide range of conditions...from highly controlled, indoor laboratory experiments to large, semi-natural outdoor experiments. At our peak each summer, we run the outdoor experiments using up to 900 "mesocosms" that simulate lakes, ponds, and wetlands.
