SODIS experiment is on! (Part 2)

Hey guys,

SODIS experiment part 1 turned out great! Sorry everyone who didn't get part 1. I was only contacting the people who were available to help out with the research, but since we are nearing the beginning the semester, I would like everyone to get involved.
We were able to set up the bottles with the temperature probes and radiometer at the solar center. I have collected the data on the initial water sample (pH, turbidity, and soon absorbance and coliform content). We will continue the experiment for the next two days by retrieving the bottles from the solar center and analyzing the incubated Rocky Branch Creek water.
If any of you are in town and want to get involved, come to the Mann lobby tomorrow at 4:00PM. I'll go over how to use the equipment and answer any questions you have about the experiment.

I hope are enjoying the rest of your summer. I'll see you when you are back in Raleigh.
