THE NATURAL WATER CYCLE AND THE DIFFERENT STATES OF WATER
What is water? Can we find it in other forms? What is its effect on the environment? What is its link with the earth's temperature? So many questions - and many more - that are answered through simple animations and experiments. The essentials before diving into the history of water...
TORRENTS, STREAMS, RIVERS AND LAKES: THE LIFE OF WATERCOURSES.
The story of a drop of water, its paths and its varied forms during its travels from the relief to the ocean, the streams and torrents, erosion, the watershed. Discover life in and at the edge of the water, small fishing and observation…
WATER TRANSFORMS THE LANDSCAPE
Dominant Vaujany and the surrounding valleys, the site of the equilibrium chimney offers a remarkable view of the Belledonne and Grandes Rousses massifs. A panorama in which water appears in different forms: glaciers, snowfields, waterfalls, torrents and streams...
Whether liquid or solid, this water has shaped – and continues to shape – the Eau d'Olle valley. When and how did this phenomenon begin? Why does it still have an influence today?
VISIT TO THE GRAND MAISON DAM
A hike around the reservoir will allow students to discover a hydroelectric facility “life-size”. The transformers, the high-voltage lines, the Verney dam: all this becomes concrete.
EXCURSION AROUND LAKE VERNEY AND THE EDF HYDRÉLEC MUSEUM
Welcome to the world of hydroelectric power plants! Unique in France, the EDF-Hydrélec museum traces the different stages of electricity production from water energy. Students discover the history and principle of hydroelectric power plants through the sciences and technologies that contributed to their development. Supervised by a museum speaker, the workshops allow students to handle and observe the different types of structures.
