Write a final project report that provides information about your semester project, as well as documentation of and results of your work. Include tables and figures as appropriate to illustrate your work. Your final report should be no more than 10 pages in length (including references), should synthesize all the work done on the project for the semester, and should allow readers to understand and (to the extent possible) reproduce the methods developed and used. Additional appendices (in addition to the 10 pages) can be used sparingly if needed for tables and figures, but please be concise with your writing in the main body of the report.
Your final project report should be formatted to conform to the manuscript template linked below (remember no more than 10 pages). You should submit a PDF of your formatted report to Canvas. If you are still working in a group, one PDF submitted to Canvas per group will be fine. Please also submit a PDF version of the grading rubric as a separate file so I can annotate it in Canvas and assign your score.

- Example paper Download Example paper that uses the report template.
- Grading rubric for the final reports is here Download here.
In general, your report should follow a standard outline. You should have a descriptive abstract (see the grading rubric) and then the general structure of your report should include the following sections:
- Introduction
- Methods
- Results and Discussion
- Conclusions
NOTE: I plan to create a new page in Canvas to list the results of your final project reports so students in subsequent classes can have a look at what you accomplished. I will post the final submitted PDF of your report on that page.
