| Discovery Notes | My soil sample was collected on September 3rd, 2013 at 4:15 pm. The temperature was 81 degrees. The sample came from a depth of 5.5 cm and was dry. It was collected in an urban setting. There was road construction nearby and the sample came from a place about 2ft away from the sidewalk - there was moderate foot traffic. There was also a residential building a few yards away. |
| Naming Notes | The word "levis" in Latin means "fickle" and the word "novo" translates to "change." The plaque sizes varied, so I thought a name with the combination of those two words was appropriate. |
