in the field

he got by with a little help from local friends

Kieran's been bussy in the field. Putting in long days and plenty of hikes to find the sample locations he had randomly assigned in the mountains. His circular plots are 1000 square meters and the measurements plenty; that feels like quite a big area when you're out in the field (and even more when the slope is over 100%). These sample units will provide valuable information on forest structure and composition, and lots of data for him to work with. All the best.
