Sample timetables
Example 1
| Tasks to complete project | Approximate time period and considerations |
|---|---|
| Field work (Sampling of the pit feature and stratigraphy) (Does not include traveling time to the site) | 7/4/16-8/13/16 Will be completed during the summer over 6-7 weeks |
| Laboratory preparation of samples for analysis | 8/15/16-11/5/16 Approximate and based on certain physical characteristics of the sample such as carbonate content and organic content |
| Laboratory analysis | 11/5/16-12/15/2016 |
| Preparation of results and materials for publishing | Ongoing 8/15/16 through 4/15/17 |
Example 2
June-August 2016 | Data collection: OA effects on GRS to sucrose
September-December 2016 | Data collection: OA effects on learning and memory
January-February 2017 | Analysis of data and interpretation of results: potential follow-up experiment on how OA affects pollen-based learning
March 2017 | Analysis of data and interpretation of results: begin writing
April-May 2017 | Continued writing; presentation of thesis
Example 3
The initial matings for this experiment will be completed by early November. Data on survival, developmental time, and adult morphological traits will be collected as nymphs reach adulthood, predicted to finish by the end of December. January through mid - March will be devoted to assessing male and female reproductive traits and analyzing the data. March through April will be used to complete data analyses and create the poster for the Nevada Undergraduate Research Symposium.
