Lab Day 4: Recollect Soil and Form Questions
Rationale: As a class, we came up with multiple ideas for our questions, from tree species, transplant/natural trees, or environmental factors (fire.)
Detailed Procedure
- New group and I decided to go around Texana area since a fire occured there around 4 months ago and collect from from both red and white oak trees.
- Took ~2 mL of Soil B from a red oak tree into a 15 mL vial
- Took a sample of a leaf and extra soil in bag
- Labeled both bag and vial
Question
Is there a correlation between tree species of oak trees and/or fire in the area? Will there be a presence of Arthro in any of the soil samples we collected?
