Hi Jeff, I was thinking you might also use the drift data to work back to a starting point for each piece of debris. It might be interesting to see where that leads. In other words look for drifters that might be near a place and a time to where a piece of debris was found and then figure out where that drifter was in may 2014. There’s a lot reasons why this would be a challenge but I still think it might be interesting and it’s just a matter of using data already collected.
That's a great idea in principle, but I don't know if any Lepas shells were kept apart from those collected from the flaperon.
