Information to be Derived:

Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Groundwater sampling of cluster wells in W. Falmouth Harbor. Measured and recorded geochemical parameters (ph, temperature, conductivity, salinity, dissolved oxygen, ORP), collected gas and water samples for greenhouse gas analysis (analyzed upon return) and water samples for nutrient analysis (stored in freezer for later analysis).
