The general format is ID (around 30-50) and an additional question about the species.
Unfortunately, if you're in a very crowded regional like I was, they might just decide to give you an insect anatomy test. So be prepared for anything.

Yeah I was going to do a quadratic but I plotted them and it was pretty dang planar. I was able to derive the equation by taking the differential vectors of 2 points on the plane and calculating their cross product and substituting into the general equation of a plane. 6th place at regionals beating...

Here's the file. There are some errors that are currently being worked out. One of the worst-run events I have ever been to....

TAI standing for "temps atomic internationale"

Correct!

Yeah, I noticed those, but we have an all-elastic cord, and additionally it's pretty hard to surface fit a function, a quadratic model may or may not do the trick, it's a sort of warped planar thing. What I'm doing now is taking the normal vector to the surface at certain points around specs that we...

This is Entomology's last year. The next two years are Herpetology followed by 2 years of Ornithology. For cheat sheets, it depends on how visual you want it to be. For me, I like to furiously flip through a field guide if I need a visual, and words work better, so mine is a two-sided mess of size 5...

This is my method for bungee: I don't know how math-oriented you all are but this is the method our team used to beat a Solon team last year at Regionals. You only need about 20 trials or so; the more the better. Take whatever cord you have and conduct separate trials on different lengths and masses...

It's cesium-131
