Participants learn characteristics and science associated with surface water and atmospheric conditions found on Earth. The Hydrology section links TEKS objectives to protocols such as water transparency, dissolved oxygen, salinity, pH, alkalinity, and macro-invertebrate collection.

The Atmospheric component comprises various TEKS topics involving weather prediction, climate, energy budget, and atmospheric composition—including cloud cover and types, contrail cover and types, precipitation, and temperature. The workshop models best practice teaching methods developed by the TTU Llano River Field Station Outdoor School Staff.
