Today is our long hike day to the summit of the Turrialba
volcano! 4 hours up to the summit, and work our way back with our 6 research
projects. The students are grouped and
have their projects refined. The
projects are wide ranging and will give us a great overall picture of the areas
we are going through during the trip.
They include: nutrient
comparisons of soils and plant biomass, pollinator diversity and plant species,
overall biodiversity of the study sites, herbivory comparisons, atmospheric
composition and impact on areas, and carbon dioxide uptake in soils.
We would love to have you ask some questions about our trip- it can be about anything related to our trip: the science, the area,
the culture, you name it. If you would
