  2. “The results should be short and sweet, without verbiage… Although the Results section of a paper is the most important part, it is often the shortest… The most common fault is the repetition in words of what is already apparent to the reader from examination of the figures and tables.” Day, R.A. 1998. How to Write & Publish a Scientific Paper, 5th ed. Oryx.

  3. Results sectionWhat are your principle findings? • Describes the key observations and trends of your data that you plan to interpret in the Discussion section • Resist the temptation to interpret your figures and tables! • Organize this section around your figures and tables that have been placed in the order that best makes your “case” • The text follows this order and draws attention to the important features.

  4. Important Reminders • No more than seven figures for your manuscript • Figures cannot show, demonstrate, explain, reveal, … • The elements of the figure are described in the figure caption, not the text. • Describe the features of the figure that are relevant to your study, not the details of the figure. • Avoid repetition – choose one method for displaying the data. Note that this section should be relatively short!

  5. Figures and Tables Figures and tables are numbered sequentially in the order in which they are cited in the text! L & O Style: Figures – no gridlines, white background, labeled axes with units, legend inside bounds of axes Tables – caption of title above table, only 3 horizontal lines – above and below header and at bottom, no vertical lines Avoid the curved lines in Excel – use straight lines (or none) to connect vertical profiles of discrete data. For vertical profiles collected using a sensor (e.g. CTD, fluorometer), use a line without symbols.

  6. Mixed Group Meetings • Provide an opportunity for you to explain your project to other students and faculty (good practice for your final oral presentation) • An opportunity to think about how your study be related to those from other groups Jon Morgan Claire Knox Gabby Fraser Alexandra Russell Evan 14-May Teos Bisbee Ben Pelle Dylan Jessum Colin KatagiriOSB 425 Paul Russell UnaMiller Katrina Herlambang Robert Daniels Madison Shipley Mark Matt Morris Kecen Zhou Julie Ann Koehlinger Brendan Pratt OSB 410 Jessie Kimber Christina R.
