===Goals===
* Gain some experience figuring out how to analyze image series data.  Probably only qualitatively, but quantitatively if you're adventurous.
* Learn how to upload a figure to FigShare.com -- Micropublishing for Science 2.0 !
* Contribute to science with the neat & new result you produced.
===Steps===
# Create an account at Figshare.com
# Watch the two movies you created during the field trip last week
# Make observations (like Sheng has already done)
# Come up with a hypothesis for why this may have happened
# Create either an annotated image (snapshot from the movie or an original image(s)) or annotated movie.
#* Create a figure (or movie) legend that describes what the annotated image or movie (or figure) is showing
# Upload your figure / movie / image to Figshare.com. 
#* The authors should be You and Andy Maloney.  You can work in pairs but make sure both of you do substantial work.
