Overview
The Extech Electrical Troubleshooting Kit includes all the necessary tools to test for electrical applications. The circuit breaker finder quickly locates circuit breakers with an audible and visible alert. The variable sensitivity adjustment is used to pinpoint the correct circuit breaker. Bright red and green LED indicators help users determine if the outlet is correctly wired and identifies six fault conditions.
Mechanics
The continuity tester/wire tracer alerts users via the bright flashing LED and loud pulsating beeper. The remote probe with flashing red or green LED allows users to trace up to three cables. The instrument clips on and hangs from the cable(s) under test without support.
Design
The AC voltage detector/flashlight performs non-contact detection of AC voltage from 100VAC to 600VAC. The instrument is built in a rugged, double-molded housing.

Wildfires and Wildlife: Relocating Coastal Rainbow Trout to the Arroyo Seco Stream
Human interaction has negatively impacted the hundreds of streams that run through Southern California. Man-made river and stream diversions, channeling, and damming have changed the physical and chemical characteristics of these waterways. In addition to physical impairments, climate change is increasingly impacting the ecosystems of streams. 
 
To evaluate and mitigate these negative impacts, local groups are monitoring the riparian habitats of these streams and are conducting water surveys that document rainbow trout populations and evaluate water quality .

Freshwater covers less than 1% of the Earth’s surface but has an outsized impact on global ecosystems, supporting more than 10% of all known species, reports the World Wildlife Fund . Freshwater environments such as rivers and wetlands provide significant scientific, economic, and cultural value. But pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and a lack of prioritization in environmental policies mean freshwater habitats are recognized as one of the most threatened in the world–something scientists have dubbed an “invisible tragedy. ”

While human infrastructure, urbanization, and industrialization have advanced human societies, the natural environment has suffered due to constructed impediments and deteriorating architecture. In order to combat this degradation, habitat restoration programs across the US work to remove impairments and improve damaged waterways.
