Water, water everywhere. This year's Explore Science Speaker Series has gone beneath the surface to discover how water affects our lives, and to teach us about the amazing creatures that inhabit aquatic worlds. 

The final presentation of this year's series will be held on Thursday, April 24 at 7:30 p.m.

The show is called, The Bruce Peninsula - Ecology Influenced by Great Lakes with outreach co-ordinator Ethan Meleg, from Parks Canada.

The Bruce Peninsula is a 100 kilometre long stretch of land, shaped by the Niagara Escarpment and nestled in the heart of the Great Lakes.

Home to Bruce Peninsula National Park and Fathom Five National Marine Park, the upper Bruce is an ecological gem - the last large wilderness area of southern Ontario and the core protected part of the Niagara Escarpment Biosphere Reserve. 

Through his photographs, Meleg will lead  a journey of discovery into the Bruce, where he's worked as a naturalist and an environmental educator for nearly a decade.

The speaker series so far has been a complement to the special exhibition WaterWorks: Soak up the Science, which is now open in Science North's Special Exhibits Hall.
