Soil samples 3/5/09


Today i went down to Botanical gardens to collect my soil samples as i could not collect them yesterday due to the rain. The soil samples were very moist due to the rain that occured today morning. I collected my soil samples in large zip lock bags, i thought of by extra large so that i could use them as gloves while collecting the soil then turn them out and zip lock the bags shut i then wrote with a permanent maker what site they came from.


Site 1:

Was a near polluted creek in the Botanical gardens it released a smell that was called rotten egg gas.












Site 2:

For site 2 my soil samples were taken roughly about 6 metres away from the Fountain/ Pond. Just off a walking track.











Site 3:
The soil samples for site 3 were taken right on a commonly used walking track to visit the Botanical gardens.




This photo was taken just on the left hand side of the walking track.







Site 4:

This site where i collected these last soil samples was located to the walk way from woolomoloo walf and takes you through towards Botanical Gardens.



I took my samples in the middle of the grass area.
