WA Dept. of Natural Resources on Instagram: "Mercedes vs. Field Rig ASMR BATTLE! Something about the dried bug guts on the grill adds a certain β¨je ne sais quoiβ¨ to the sound quality. @milwaukeepubliclibrary has their outreach van, @wsdot has their snowplow. Here at DNR, we have the glorious field rig. This little kitty can roarβ¦ through treacherous terrains and bumpy forest roads so our foresters, firefighters, geologists, recreation managers, and ecologists can get to where they need to go in the field. This specific rig, as modeled by earthquake geologist and geophysicist Megan Anderson, is used by our Washington Geologic Survey team to collect geophysical data (and rocks tbh) and conduct supportive mapping of the geology of an area. Geophysical data helps us see into the subsurface, where rocks are covered by vegetation or young sediment on the surface. With this data, our scientists can find subsurface features such as faults. Your move, luxury cars."
