Friday morning--UPDATED
It's the last morning at SERC. It's wet but not raining. Last night in Annapolis, it was so wet that it was madness for us to be there. Still, while everyone was shopping, I went on a nice self-guided tour of the architecture. Very charming. I didn't buy anything, of course, but I did enjoy all of the fresh, home-made treats offered by the various "Midnight Madness" merchants. Overall, I must admit that Annapolis looks like a place to visit again.
After breakfast, we went to the trailer to get our assignments. It turns out that we have some quality-control issues that came up during data entry. We need to go back out to the field to check on them. We also have a couple of subplots to measure and map, plus we have rain gauges to examine. Finally we have some data entry to complete. If we get done early, we'll have the chance to hike around the property--at least where the hunters are forbidden.

I am glad you got some treats! Would you be able to bring soil samples, or would that be against transportation and agriculture laws (you wouldn't be able to take the samples on the plane)?
What type of quality- control issues came up ? Could they have been avoided with better communication our was it just an error?

I was taught to pay attentions to sponsor of the data while looking at all the datas. your interesting trip makes me wonder how SERC is sponsored. So... the data SERC acquires are usually unbiased. Right?
p.s. how long would this entire project will take?
