The Proactive Poseidon 12 volt submersible pumps are engineered for the pump tests and groundwater remediation. The Poseidon series pump line will fit into Schedule 40 or 80 2" diameter wells. There are three models available: Poseidon 60 (pumps 60 feet depth to water); Poseidon 80 (pumps 80 feet depth to water); Poseidon 100 (pumps 100 feet depth to water).
The Poseidon pumps are easy to install and operate. Simply attach 3/8" ID polyethylene tubing to the barb tip using a hose clamp and attach suspension rope to the eye hook provided on top of the pump. Then, lower the pump to the desired water depth and energize the pump with a deep cycle marine battery and/or a small solar system.
The approximate life expectancy of the Poseidon motor module is 400 hours depending on how often it is used. The patented replaceable motor module can be changed out within 60 seconds, which means no down time or expensive service calls. Just twist in the new motor module and start pumping again. Once the new motor module is installed, the pump is essentially new and will have a life span identical to a new pump. The Poseidon pump ships to with one motor module installed on the pump. Additional motor modules can be purchased as needed.

Sewage an Unseen and Ignored Threat to Coral Reefs and Human Health
It’s an open, dirty secret that the ocean is used as the ultimate sewage solution. Each year trillions of gallons of untreated waste are sent to the ocean due to a widespread lack of sanitation technology or infrastructure that needs updating as cities and populations grow. As the impact of untreated sewage on the ocean becomes clearer, attention to the problem and strategies for dealing with it have not kept up. “This is a massive problem and it’s been largely ignored,” said Stephanie Wear, senior scientist and strategy advisor for The Nature Conservancy. Wear has turned her attention to raising the alarm about the effects of sewage on coral reefs, which often loses airtime to other pressing issues like climate change and overfishing.

Lake Superior Algal Blooms Surprise, Highlight Need for More Monitoring
In 2012, for maybe the first time, Lake Superior got scummy. Visitors to the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore reported algae washing up on shore around the park. It was a marked shift for the park, made up of a portion of the Lake Superior lakeshore and nearby islands. The water surrounding the park is cold, clear and typically low in nutrients: a combination unlikely to result in algal blooms. But, in 2012 and again in 2018 after violent storms, major algal blooms—ones observed over multiple days—washed ashore and clogged the beaches with unsightly, scummy algae. Not the usual suspects The algal blooms of Lake Superior are not the algal blooms of warmer, more nutrient-rich lakes like Lake Erie.

Unprecedented Changes are a New Challenge for Lake Tanganyika
*This is part two of a series on changing ancient lakes. See part one, Lake Baikal, here . Ancient lakes are facing a suite of rapid, unprecedented anthropogenic changes. While ancient lakes are spread around the world and vary widely from lake to lake, their incredible age, which can reach into the tens of millions of years, makes them unique resources to science. They host incredible biodiversity and long sediment records. They are vital sources of food and water for millions of people. In a changing world, ancient lakes’ value as scientific and natural resources and the incredibly diverse life they contain is under threat.
