Using drones to study groundwater
Did you know that plants can help us understand what is happening underground? Studying plants in an area can sometimes provide information about soil conditions, water availability, and water quality.

ADCP Bridge Measurement
An ADCP is used to measure streamflow from a bridge near Kelly, Wyoming. Even with smoke making the view hazy, the Tetons never fail to make measuring streamflow in the Gros Ventre a treat.

The emission of volcanic gases, including sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, i
The emission of volcanic gases, including sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, iThe emission of volcanic gases, including sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, is not unusual at the summit of Kīlauea. However, sulfur dioxide gas emission rates are now lower than they have been since before 1983, with about 50 tonnes/day measured at the summit of the volcano on the day of this photo (October 24).
