Overview
The Gedotech Geosub Controller is designed specifically for use with Geotech's Geosub 2 Stainless Steel Pump. It provides a safe, conditioned variable DC output power from an AC power source. Built-in sensing gives the operator accurate and precise control over the pump during sampling events.
Battery Life
An average 1000-watt gasoline generator with 1 gallon of gasoline will operate the Geosub Controller and Geotech's sampling pump at full power for 18 hours continuously. Generally, much longer run times can be expected as the controller is used to reduce water flow for low-flow sampling.
Design
An easy-to-use programmable user interface with a bright display offers precise control over flow rates during groundwater sampling events. Site-specific settings and conditions can easily be stored and recalled for more efficient, repeatable sampling events. Rugged construction and easy-to-connect cables make setup and portability a breeze. In addition, the controller includes a user-set dry run protection feature.
Benefits
- Converts AC Voltage to variable up to 300-watt DC voltage output
- Short circuit protection for your safety
- Heavy duty rated power cable for years of service
- 2-line x 16-character wide temperature range alpha-numeric digital display
- Push button Up/Down control
- Internal processor saves individual well parameters
- Optional DC to AC Inverter can be connected to a vehicle battery

Climate Change and Microplastics: Monitoring Lake Champlain
Most people go to Lake Champlain for its exceptional views and thrilling boating, but it’s also home to a wide variety of interesting aquatic research projects. From studying microplastics to thermal dynamics of the lake, Timothy Mihuc, director of the Lake Champlain Research Institute (LCRI) at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh (SUNY Plattsburgh), has spent his career studying aquatic ecosystems. 
 
 As an aquatic biologist, he’s the main investigator on Lake Champlain’s research studies while also managing their grants, employees, and their hands-on buoy work. 
 
 Over the years, LCRI has received a number of environmental grants that aid in its monitoring research.

On March 26th, according to The Baltimore Sun , a 984-foot, 112,000-ton Dali lost propulsion and collided with a support column of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, collapsing the structure. Soon after the event, search and rescue, salvage crews, and other emergency responders were mobilized after the collision. 
 
As salvage efforts progressed in early April, NOAA’s Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) responded to a request for real-time tidal currents data and deployed a current monitoring buoy—CURBY (Currents Real-time BuoY)—into the Patapsco River north of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
Read MoreSoundscapes of the Solar Eclipse: Citizen Science Supporting National Research
On April 8, 2024, millions of people around the world had their eyes glued to the sky to witness a historic cosmic event. The total solar eclipse captured the headlines and the minds of many who became eager to gaze at the heavens as the sky went dark for a few minutes. However, not everyone used their sense of sight during the eclipse, some were listening to the sounds of the natural world around them as the light faded from above. 
 
 The Eclipse Soundscape Project is a NASA-funded citizen science project that focuses on studying how the annular solar eclipse on October 14, 2023, and the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse impacted life on Earth. 
 
 The project revisits an initiative from the 1930s that showed animals and insects are affected by solar eclipses.
