PVC pipe of science! We installed these samplers in four locations, and they will sit in Littlefield Creek for a month to collect suspended sediment as the water flows through the pipe. More info on the project at: http://ow.ly/pRbV50zJH6Z

This video discusses how adhesion and cohesion work together to create capillary action! There is an experiment at the end of the video to demonstrate this as well! If you would like to do the experiment with us you will need: 1) Coffee filter 2) Washable marker 3) Glass of water
