Near-Surface Seismic Survey in the Bronx
USGS hydrologists prepare equipment for multi-channel analysis of surface waves (MASW) land seismic imaging survey. The geophones (in the yellow "land streamer") are pulled behind a vehicle. This relatively new system allows for inexpensive and rapid data acquisition.

Installing Water-Level Monitoring Gage
Installing a water-level monitoring gage, Coosawattee River, Georgia. Two USGS workers installing a "stilling well"s, which is a major component of most systems used to monitor stream stage (gage height). The pipe is placed vertically into the stream and the level of the water in the pipe is continuously monitored and transmitted to USGS water-science offices.

Near-Surface Gravity Survey
A USGS hydrologist prepares equipment to conduct a gravity survey to evaluate small variations in the earth's gravity field. The USGS Office of Groundwater Branch of Geophysics develops and tests new tools and field methods to support USGS analysis of groundwater flow systems.

Using GPS in the Field
USGS hydrologist collects location data using GPS during a near-surface geophysics survey. The survey was conducted as part of an applied research effort by the USGS Office of Groundwater Branch of Geophysics in 2007.

Rio Nigua at Turnpike
A fire scar is visible on the distant hills. During the dry season brush fires are common in Salinas, Puerto Rico. The vegetation near the river is greener and burns less often then the hillslopes. The location is 17º59'15"N, 66º17'40"W and the elevation is 10 m.

Cone on Pavonis Mons
A cone located on Pavonis Mons, Mars. Pavonis Mons is a shield volcano in the Tharsis region. This cone’s location in a volcanically active area, its parasitic position on Pavonis Mons, and its breach are all familiar to Earth cinder cones. It’s thus very likely that this is a cinder cone.
