Now that the subsurface work has been completed for the general terrain, the individual experiment sites are being setup. This does require more digging and connecting cables. But first, January started off being too cold for activities, but this luckily didn't last too long.
In February most activities concerned the construction of the Land2Sea lab.
Land2Sea Lab
The Land2Sea Lab looks into interactions at the land-sea-air interfaces and has three facilities: an open-end wind tunnel in which sand and vegetated soil beds can be placed; an aquatic-vegetation greenhouse with tide simulator; and an outdoor water basin with variable depth and wave paddle. The lab offers controlled environments to study processes that govern dynamics of beach-dune systems, intertidal marshlands and shallow coastal waters.
These activities continued into March. There were no significant visible changes to the rest of the terrain.
