Your team will be given a
thermometer. You may be given one of the light meters or a
hygrometer.
Chose a starting point in the forest. Using a compass, move
north of this starting point about 10 metres (one metre is
roughly equal to two large strides). When you reach the the
North position take the air temperature one metre above the
soil. If you have the appropriate instrument, also take a
light reading or a humidity reading.
Move back to the starting point
and repeat the instructions for S, W, E, NW, NE, SW and SE
positions.
Record your results in the
appropriate cell :
