After discussions with Jackie Gerson (via email), Stacey, Brook, Dave, and Phil (separately), we decided to stick with the Nalgene collection bottle system for the LTAR lysimeter program. This would allow adequate technique for inorganic N, DOC, metals, nutrients, but not Hg or PFAS (need glass which is not in our purview at this time). Purchase caps with proper adapters from DMR (Prenart) and bottles from Fisher sci.

Prepared standards, Acid washed dishes.

Soil samples were collected (1 m S, 1m E) at GLBRC main site for inorganic N and soil moisture. This is series 1 sampling for 2010 season. From now onwards samples will be taken every other week. This soil sampling is a replacement to resin strip technique that was adopted in 2009. Samplers;Josh G, Tim, AJ, Poonam, Brandon 4-7-2010
