This is the same medication used in a different study (https://www.aaas.org/news/science-crayfish-can-be-calmed-anti-anxiety-medication) Do only this group of Anti-anxiety medications work in crayfish?

(A pretty fancy piece of equipment is needed here, but I like the concept of this sort of project. Rigorous life science concepts, ability to generate a ton of data, super applicable to real life immediately, etc.)

If we were able to sample various springs/baths in the midwest could we even culture strains like this, and then what would it take to identify them? You could compare that perhaps to total colony counts on Petri dishes.

a detailed examination of the bacterial and archaeal communities found within the waters of the popular tourist attraction in the city of Bath

The Elms is a famous springwater bath locale here in Excelsior Springs, Missouri less than an hour away. Eureka Springs, Arkansas is another area nearby off the top of my head. This also has me asking general questions about other bathing scenarios that would not likely feature ancient microbes, like hot tubs, swimming pools, etc. I wonder about ALL of the variables that go into the conditions of these baths and how that might correlate to total numbers of bacteria as well as differing types. There isn't a TON of microbiology that we can do in the high school lab without help, but I do know that we are generally permitted to work with environmentally-found bacteria (like the little lab we did in the Addie unit).

Scientists collected samples of water, sediment and biofilm from locations within the Roman Baths complex including the King's Spring (where the waters reach around 45°C) and the Great Bath, where the temperatures are closer to 30°C.
-
This means they collected from the water column itself, but also biofilms (which would be found along the edges of containments walls, etc... in addition to sediment found at the bottom of natural spring sources.

New fabric makes urban heat islands more bearable | ScienceDaily - 0 views

This year has already seen massive heatwaves around the globe, with cities in Mexico, India, Pakistan and Oman hitting temperatures near or past 50 degrees Celsius (122 degrees Fahrenheit).

In tests under the Arizona sun, the material kept 2.3 degrees Celsius (4.1 degrees Fahrenheit) cooler than the broadband emitter fabric used for outdoor endurance sports and 8.9 degrees Celsius (16 degrees Fahrenheit) cooler than the commercialized silk commonly used for shirts, dresses and other summer clothing.

Super interesting, and relatively simple topic. If this was looking at bacteria normally found environmentally in the kitchen, we could easily get approved. We could even culture those. The thing that makes this difficult to do at school is the fact that this is all about viruses. Detecting these in our lab would be super difficult. I'm also not sure if we could even get a culture of virally-infected cells to perform controlled studied. This one is a "maybe."

Fungi as a soil conditioner is an interesting topic. This is something Eli Jenkins was looking into last year, although his attempts at growing the plants he wanted (he got started very late) kept him from really testing the product he wanted to test. I have also seen other commercial soil treatments meant to break down clay soils and keep water from pooling at the top of the soil.
