Contract Type FiledJune 17th, 2021The Dragonfly Mercury Project engages volunteer citizen scientists to collect juvenile dragonflies (dragonfly larvae or nymphs) in national parks. Dragonfly larvae live for years underwater eating insects and even small fishes. Mercury builds up inside the larvae and can give scientists insight into the health of the waters in which they live. Mercury often enters parks as air pollution from distant, human-caused, sources, like coal-burning power plants.
