Green Infrastructure Living Laboratory
A collaboration between the Philadelphia Water Department and Drexel University
Wasps love the cozy dry box where we store our weather station monitoring equipment. Their nest was blocking the port that transmits the data, so we had to ask them to move. Franco, our lab director, is braver than the rest of us. He was well *suited* to the challenge!
Adieu to Stephen and welcome to Korin!
