A "Laborful" Day

Research is kicking up a notch in Dr.D's lab, so today was just the best time to get some of the experiments done. Met a past grad student of UTPA whose specialty is the seagrass I'm currently researching on and we're meeting later this week to learn how to take "integrative" measurements of Thalassia seagrass. Will definitely be an interesting week, lots to do! As for today, I'm halfway completed with my experiments and because of some problematic results I produced, I've created more experiments. DON'T YOU JUST LOVE SCIENCE?! Isn't it awesome when you're trying to answer one question you come up with 20 more questions, research rocks!

My work with the Walz Diving PAM is almost over :-( and soon will have to be returned to its rightful owner. I have some great memories with it and I feel honored to have even gotten the chance to master the machine, but soon we shall meet again! Check out my diving pam:
