Album caption and index card: Morphology of a crystal of colemanite, CaB3O4 (OH) 3.H2O, being studied with a two-circle optical goniometer by Joan R. Clark. The crystal is mounted on a goniometer head on the vertical circle at the left, the horizontal circle is at the bottom of the instrument, a light source is at the back, right, and the optical system is in the center of the picture. By rotating the crystal around the axis of either the vertical or the horizontal circle it is brought into position to reflect light from the crystal faces at given angles. The reflections can be observed through the optical system, their angular readings recorded, and hence the angles between various crystal faces can be measured....

Global trends in wetland degradation and loss have created an urgency to monitor wetland extent, as well as track the distribution and causes of wetland loss. Satellite imagery can be used to monitor wetlands over time, but few efforts have attempted to distinguish anthropogenic wetland loss from climate-driven variability in wetland extent. We present an approach to concurrently track land cover disturbance and inundation extent across the Mid-Atlantic region, United States, using the Landsat archive in Google Earth Engine. Disturbance was identified as a change in greenness, using a harmonic linear regression approach, or as a change in growing season brightness. Inundation extent was mapped using a modified version...
