Webster Lake, Massachusetts
Webster Lake—formally known as Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg, the longest place name in the United States—is a 1,442‑acre freshwater lake in central Massachusetts. The lake contributes to the French River watershed through inflow from small tributaries and supports recreational boating, including the paddle‑wheel tour boat shown here.

Acetolysis Set-Up, Pollen Laboratory
Seen in this image is the acetolysis set up. Acetolysis is used to remove the genetic material from inside the pollen, which allows the scientists to better identify and count the pollen.
