Guest Appearances from: Justin Keister and Caleb Gibson

Today Caleb and Dr. Stonedahl showed Caleb Gibson what we have been working on so far this Summer, and we also took more data from the two Permeameters. In between our first and second run of the peremeameters the Humboldt one stopped running, so we were not able get any more data from it today, and we also noticed that there was air between the sand and the permeable plate in the permeameter, so we want to make sure that doesn't happen again.


We also went to lunch and met with the other groups in the SRI and we all presented our weekly updates to each other.

For the program we have worked on trying to find a better method for the blue detection, and still haven't made much progress on improving it. We think that we will try using separate methods for the dark sand and the lighter sand, to see if that will allow us to get more accurate results from the darker sand.


For tomorrow:
Run both permeameters.
    Hopefully we will be able to get all the measurements.
Work on program.
