Discovery NotesDepth collected was ~ 1 cm. The phage soil sample was found on Drillfield by a tree more towards the academic side of campus. There are lots of foot traffic or people interacting in the area, wildlife living in and near the area, and is closer to the road than the center of Drillfield, so there is likely an impact due to vehicle traffic.
Naming NotesThe phage was found under a tree and I liked the pun it made with the song "Under the Sea" from the movie "The Little Mermaid".
