Problems+Encountered

1. Rain
==== The rain was a downer when we got to Cloe Lake it made it wet, dreary, and cold. This wasn’t the only thing the rain did it also caused different problems with Jackson Run. One problem was the water was flowing faster and stronger than usual, due to the couple days of rain before that. This made it harder to get in the water and move around. This also caused the bed of the river to move more and dislodge more sediment making it harder to get the correct test results with the chemical tests. ====

2. Chemical Test Issues
==== Our Chemical Issue was that it was hard to get correct readings during the day. When we performed the Dissolved Oxygen test the chemicals are supposed to change colors three times, our chemicals only changed twice. This was due to an error made by confusion with the directions. The Alkalinity test was also performed wrong due to confusion with the directions again. Both test had to be performed again. Also our readings were not exactly correct due to the fact that the rain caused run off, and this made our readings a little to high or a little to low. ====
