It's a while ago, but some pics from the Sequential sampler version 1.0. The original is from Kennedy et al. 1979.

YESTERDAY (07062011): THANKS A LOT !!!

Yesterday 20110607 was the second biannual sampling campaign (the spring edition) in the Alptal.

One hundred locations in tough terrain were sampled. A new Alptal record!

This was only possible with the help of a great team! Now it’s waiting for the results. To be continued…

In meantime check the pics:
