USGS Groundwater Monitoring in Winter
Detailed Description
Groundwater science doesn't take a winter vacation! In this photo, USGS hdyrologic technician Jeremiah Pomerleau has snowshoed to a USGS groundwater monitoring site in Eustis, Maine. USGS scientists visit USGS groundwater observation wells year-round to measure water levels and maintain equipment. You can view or download USGS groundwater-level data from the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS) web site. The Eustis, Maine, monitoring well is managed by the USGS New England Water Science Center.
