Upriver view of the Colorado River where it meets the ocean. This photo was taken after the Minute 319 pulse flow to to simulate natural spring floods. Water provided by the Minute 319 agreement between the United States and Mexico is intended to promote riparian habitat restoration along the river in its delta.

Collecting dragonfly larvae for the Dragonfly Mercury Project
Between 2009 and 2018, scientists conducted a national scale assessment of mercury accumulation in the National Park System using dragonfly larvae as biosentinels (species that accumulate a pollutant in their tissues as an index of exposure to other organisms without significant adverse effects to the biosentinel) through a citizen science network called the Dragonf
