Our group was assigned to go to the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve. (:
Not really my first time there. But going there has made me learnt a lot of new things.
We got the dataloggers from school.
We collected data of the pH, temperature and the humidity. Collecting these data has let me know this three different things around us, of the surroundings and what to expect there.
While collecting and going places to collect these, I saw different organisms (!) and some of which i did not know that it is going to be found there.
AWESOME.
I saw different kinds of trees and those of which are found in the mangrove. It was cool, seeing so many of that kind of trees, mangrove trees. (:
The roots are like sticking out and this is the first time having to see this. I learnt how to use the three types of equipments and how it is used to collect different type of datas needed.
Observing the organisms around me while collecting data is fun.
The weather was so hot while we were taking the readings that we were sweating like mad and we were practically shining because of us wearing white uniforms and the sunlight reflected from it.
We came across this huge spider and saw how it managed to spin its web and get away from us who are taking pictures of it. Luckily, we caught sight of a snake of which I do not think will be found here. This snake was green and it did not blend into the surroundings because of its outer covering, having us to see it. I learnt that these kind of organisms are easily found in this wetland reserve and that we did have fun learning these and observing and look around the surroundings of this reserve.
My group went around to 3 places taking different readings so we have a total of 3 readings for
the temperature, r.H and P.H. Going deeper into the reserve, you can find more organisms and get more acurate readings there.
Lastly, the data collected had let me know how the organisms preferred to live in this kind of surrounding, with its adaptation.So mainly, I have fun exploring the place and learning new things.
