Discovery NotesSoil was covered with branches and little stones. The soil sample was collected 2 Inches under the ground. Temperature should be close to room temperature, but should be lower because there were lots of trees. The soil sample we collected was located next to the statue and lots of flowers and trees. Also the place was very humid and full of moisture in the air.
