Status for July 21

21 Jul 2016

What have I worked on?

dispersalTrait: protocol development after morning Skype with Brett and Alan. Project is a bit unwieldy/infeasible as it stands, but will get more reasonable soon hopefully. Set up some preliminary trials and made data sheets.
reading: A couple papers on the influence of competition on metapopulation stability.
labOrganization: spent some time cleaning up stacks of old data sheets, getting things put away or pitched, taking inventory, ordering more flour, etc.

hostRange: push along
tempVarInfection: revisions
dispersalTrait: sharpen protocol, and do some more preliminary trials to determine dispersal probabilities.
roleConservation: did some thinking about how to analyze the data, so tomorrow is the day to push this along.
