Rebecca Neumann of MIT hangs on bamboo scaffolding in a rice field near Bashailbhog village in Bangladesh as she connects the end of the tubing that will be used to suck up water from the rice field for analysis, including determining the arsenic content. The setup was used for an intensive sampling campaign that involved the collection and processing of surface water from seven locations, and subsurface water from 14 locations every day and night for six days.
