Nicole and I will be participating in the 2021 Summer Research Symposium at Virginia Tech on Thursday (7/29)! If you are a member of the VT community and would like to view our presentation and ask any questions, self-enroll in the conference site at canvas.vt.edu/enroll/6W3PDF.
We went out to the field site and collected cross-sectional data with the Auto-Level and Philadelphia Rod again! The two graphs below show the cross-section of the stream before and after the major flooding event that occurred on July 1st.
Today, we had a wonderful LEWAS lunch!

On July 1st, we experienced a major flooding event! The system was completely submerged under the water, and we are still working to get the Sonde back up and running.

We are collecting FlowTracker data of the baseflow to compare the velocity with the data collected from the runoff events!

2 @LEWASLab members traveled to Carroll County Middle School last week for an outreach event. The students created their own watershed models, learned about pollution effects (the rice and raisinettes), and experienced our field site in Virtual Reality.

Our civil team witnessed an illicit discharge event today. Below are the before and after photos, taken 15 minutes apart. They contacted VT Site and Infrastructure Development to further investigate.
