Notes: Notes:Joel Johnson has been using our core logger and CCD imager on cores from Monterey Fan, and the study is combining Joels new cores with cores that I collected in the past. Joel needs to leave his cores with CMG to keep them refrigerated, which is very important given that the work on the cores is just beginning.
