Some pictures taken one of the days we were working in field.... This storm got us moving quickly.




It is a nice field site. I wouldn't mind having to go out once a month and collect data. We were collecting data and taking various measurements of the wells, the circular things in the ground we had put in earlier in the week, for Ari's project. We had to dig out the holes, usually put casing in, which is a large expensive hollow pvc pipe, and then insert the well. The well consists of a smaller pvc pipe with a plastic filter on the bottom, to let water in but keep sand out. She then lowered lagers, which collect data at set intervals.


These sites are located near SR 12 on the OBX. It's like A1A in Florida. It's the main road that runs down the barrier islands.

Here's a pix of JP, one of my advisors, and I working at sites farther North from the others, hence there is no storm.


This pix was taken on the sound side of the road. Ari, the one with the laptop, Twaumly, and I workin' hard.
