Hydrologic technician measured the streamflow of ice-covered rivers in Northern Maine as part of the North Index Trip. Certain gages are considered "Index" sites because they make for good references when comparing discharges of nearby streamgages, especially in frozen conditions.
Anthony Underwood
Anthony Underwood is a Hydrologic Technician in the New England Water Science Center.
After a decade of working in bench-level chemistry for commercial testing and research laboratories, Anthony changed career paths and joined the USGS in 2008. As a Hydrologic Technician for the Maine Hydrologic Monitoring Branch, he operated continuous monitoring stations collecting surface-water, groundwater, and water-quality data throughout the State as well as in parts of Northeastern New Hampshire and Canada.
Since 2020, Anthony has been working for the Water-Quality Networks Section in the Applied Hydrology Branch. He's been able to apply his experience with continuous monitoring and discrete data collection to assist in the operation of various projects, ensuring that monitors and operators continue to provide data to the public. Anthony provides guidance to technicians on data management, quality control, and field activities. He ensures quality information is available, so project managers and cooperators can make informed decisions.
Anthony performs routine field activities in the collection and processing of discrete and continuous water-quality data throughout New England.

Ice Jam Remnants
On April 29, hydrologic technicians Anthony Underwood and Jeremiah Pomerleau visited the USGS gaging station on the St. John River at Ninemile Bridge and found a sea of broken up, dirty ice left behind by a recent ice jam.
According to Anthony, photos don't do the size and scale of the ice chunks any justice.

Cableway Measurement
On April 10, 2014 hydrologic technicians Nick Stasulis and Anthony Underwood visited the USGS gaging station on Grand Lake Stream at Grand Lake Stream, Maine. The cableway was used to make a discharge measurement with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP).

Cable Pool - Cherryfield
The USGS monitors the Narraguagus River at Cherryfield, Maine at a location called Cable Pool. This spot was once renowned for Atlantic salmon, where anglers would line the banks, waiting their turn to cast a line into the water.
