Scientists use high-speed photographs to study physical movement, measuring phenomena like surface tension and gravitational effects.

In all, five probes were made, collecting water samples, measuring temperatures and other phenomena.

Spatial sampling involves determining a limited number of locations in geographic space for faithfully measuring phenomena that are subject to dependency and heterogeneity.
