Information about the location
● The tributaries of the Kelani river in
Yatiyanthota were at the lower course of the river
● Firstly, we had to keep in mind the time taken to travel to the location of the fieldwork
and how convenient it is.
● We also had to keep in mind the cost of the whole trip and if it was within our budget.
● Mainly, we had to pay attention to the safety of the location. Was it safe for a Form 4
class to wander around? Was there a safe route to reach the location?
How and why did we choose
these specific sites?
● Once we reached the location, each group was allowed to pick three different sites to
carry out their measurements in.
● Some points we considered while choosing our three sights are:
-The distance and difference between each site. We didn't want sites that were too
similar to each other or too different to each other.
-If the size of the site was appropriate compared to the other two sites.
How could we refine our techniques?
