Day 18

Today in the morning meeting Joe showed us some of the past interns presentations and gave us the link so we could look at them all for help with our presentations that we have been working on. After we went down to the second floor to see the room that we would be presenting in and see the size of the screen our presentation would be on to get a understanding of how big things need to be on each slide. After the meeting me and my lab partner went to our lab and began editing our slides so some of our pictures and graphs could be seen better and so it looked more appealing to the audiences eyes. After a while of work on this me and my lab partner took the data we gathered from the manual image analysis pictures that we already completed and began to transpose them

from pixels to microns. After we did that our advisor said that we should make histograms to go with the data in each chart but we ran into some trouble. Instead of the chart giving us the grain size distribution for each sieve it gave us the cumulative distribution for the whole thing. When this happened it took us a while to try and figure out what was wrong and by the end of the day this was still an issue we needed to fix tomorrow.
