Photo of a mesocosm like that utilized in the study (Schmidt and others, 2022). The rocks are colonized with natural stream communities of aquatic insects. Fresh stream water is circulated through the mesocosm, and individual mesocosms are dosed with different concentrations of a neonicotinoid compound.

The geoknife package was created to support web-based geoprocessing of large gridded datasets according to their overlap with landscape (or aquatic/ocean) features that are often irregularly shaped. geoknife creates data access and subsequent geoprocessing requests for the USGS’s Geo Data Portal to carry out on a web server.

Recently USGS hydrologists installed equipment to measure changes in groundwater levels over time at this well in Cordell Hull Birthplace State Park in Tennessee. While new groundwater wells used for household water supplies in the United States are now usually installed using modern drilling equipment, this old well was originally dug by hand.
