Day 15 RET summer training

Day 15

We are officially half way into our training and what better way to end it but with a mid-term presentation. Our presentation took a little over 30 minutes including time for addressing questions from audience. I think we did very well. I've added our project next steps:

-     Develop a device to measure ammonia levels autonomously
-     Run the sensor cluster and PASCO for 24 hrs. to retrieve data
-     Test efficiency of our aquaponic systems by measuring the success of our biotic factors..ie fish and 

       plants
-     Create a water dispenser to help neutralize ammonia levels and to keep water levels stable
-     Create our stream system from last year and deploy a control system for water level

-      Add clams to system (act as a bio indicator)
-      Build an online database
-      Introduce a disturbance to tank and monitor
-      taking video clips of automatic food dispenser and other controls at work
