This week started with a great deal of progress, but several issues arose that slowed things down by the end.
The field deployment of the PSDs went very well. Most of the Locustox staff were able to participate, the weather was good, and the sites well suited to the training (see previous posts for details).
Numerous other engagements limited PSD work on Wednesday and Thursday. I fell ill on Thursday and was unable to work at the lab. The standards that were ordered for us by Amanda on September 18th finally arrived today (Friday) after some miscommunication with FEDEX. This more than anything limited the work we could perform as our next step is to run the standards on the GC with the modified method and helium.
We are prepared, however, for the first field retrieval this coming week.
