Air Quality
It might be going to get hot, but how will this affect the Air quality? I have the @thepocketlab air quality sensor out to record the data as well as the temperature
Recording the Heatwave
Setting up the @pascoscientific wireless weather sensor to record the heatwave. The Sensor has great data logging facilities so I can track the temperature over the next few days
Getting a very thin Slice
Using a microtome (safe) and a cut throat razor (not safe) to get thin sections of a pineapple leaf. We managed some good slides.
