Hello! I am a student from saint mark school/ Pope John Paul ii and I have a question to ask you. My question is how did you protect the data samples from the heavy rains?

Hi there!The samples of till are collected in small, plastic cubes. Each side of
the cube is approximately 2.0 cm. The top side of the cube has lid that
'snaps' on to the cube, encasing and protecting it from the rain. So
once the sample cube has its lid on, it's safe!
The 25 cube samples of a complete AMS fabric are then put into a large
ziplock bag.
Great question and I hope your class enjoyed following along!
