Beach profiling pt. 2 Sam H.

The class comes to the field station and we get out of the two cars. We bring a emery     rod and a long metal pole. We get a hammer from the garage then go to the beach. 

We stop by a tree and get the exact longitude and latitude. 

1. Record the time, date, temperature,and the longitude and latitude. 
2. Use the hammer to hammer the metal pole into you starting point (the dunes). 
3. Place one of the emery rods next to metal pole, then bring the other pole as far away as you can. (Make sure they're both straight!) 
4.  Get behind the first rod and line up the horizon and the far rod's top. 
5. Measure and record what number they both line up on.
6. Now move the first rod to where the far rod was and put the far rod as far as you can away. (Remember the keep them straight up!) Line the horizon and far rod's top up again, measure and record it and do the same thing until you get to the water. 

-Observations 

1. A college group came to take water samples and get plankton.
2. The wind was coming at us from the west.
3. The beach profiling only went up (positive) once, it mostly was negative.
