Overview
The Geotech disposable bailers come in a variety of configurations and specifications for every type of water sampling requirement, including the most demanding. Manufactured with thick walls, Geotech bailers are heavier than standard disposable bailers, and sink every time.
Design
Improved bailer design: Geotech's Orbit Flux design fills 33% faster than other bailers. V-notch design for trouble-free cord attachment and accurate pouring. The Geotech FEP Disposable Bailers are as heavy as most double-weighted without the extra cost. Made of virgin, FDA-approved, high-density poly resin. The polyethylene used contains no plasticizers or additives, and no regrinds are accepted.
Maintenance
Geotech polyethylene bailers undergo independent laboratory testing and analysis on each material lot. The optional double check valve isolates the sample and seals as the bailer is removed from the well at specific depths.
Model Options
A pressurized disposable bailer is available and provides the convenience of using in-line dispos-a-filters in the field when pumps are not available.

Carbon and Nutrient Monitoring in the Great Lakes Using Satellite Observations
Carbon and nutrients are the foundation of lake food webs and play an important role in the chemical and physical processes that shape aquatic ecosystems and various lake dynamics. Studying these cornerstones can help improve understanding of other lake conditions like harmful algal blooms, hypoxia, and phytoplankton community composition. The way in which these characteristics are monitored varies, though many rely on a proxy approach wherein parameters are extrapolated from the measurement of a different parameter. An assistant professor at Cleveland State University, Brice Grunert, is working to improve current strategies and take a satellite approach to monitoring the Great Lakes.

North Texas is one of the fastest-growing regions in the state, an area that is expected to face increasing water needs. In order to meet these demands, the Upper Trinity Regional Water District ( UTRWD ) is building Lake Ralph Hall near Ladonia in southeast Fannin County, Texas. The lake has been in the works since 2003, with construction finally beginning in 2021. The population of the UTRWD is expected to grow 5-fold over the next 50 years, leading to increased water use. Ed Motley, Program Manager with the UTRWD stresses that even with conservation and reuse, new sources like Lake Ralph Hall are essential to meeting near-term and long-term water needs to support regional growth.
Read MoreScience for Science’s Sake: Monitoring Ocean Energy Availability and Gulf Stream Dynamics
Scientific research often begins with a question, sometimes driven by a specific goal or application, but many scientists believe in science for science’s sake. Marine environments and physical dynamics like the Gulf Stream are popular fields of research due to their complexity and importance, presenting a unique opportunity to learn more about previously unexplored phenomena. Environmental researchers, in particular, see the value in these ecosystems, but many also grew up with a passion for the natural world, and choosing a field that allows them to interact with and learn about the environment around us is an easy choice.
