"It's sobering and surprising to see how much snowpack is predicted to be reduced by the end of this century and how much earlier spring snowmelt happens." abcnews.go.com/Technology/cl… via @ABC citing doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2202393… @MusselmanKeith
Great day in the forest below Niwot Ridge, CO with a multidisciplinary team. We walked the future site of our EcoTram, a moving monitoring platform focused on water, energy, & vegetation. Stay tuned, busy summer ahead! @brianbuma1 @uw_nsgeophysics @INSTAAR

We have begun posting highlights from our project StoryMap on instagram, which highlights various aspects of the project. Here is a link to the first post! instagram.com/p/CaDZmtRv7VS/
The journal Nature Climate Change has a great Focus feature this week on Water in a Changing Climate. I feel honored to have one of our recent papers included in the highlight. nature.com/collections/ifdba… #nature @NansAddor @INSTAAR #climate

The Arctic Rivers team created a beautiful Story Map describing the @RiversArctic project connecting Indigenous knowledge + western science to strengthen collective understanding of the changing #Arctic: geonarrative.usgs.gov/arctic…. Check it out! #Alaska #Yukon

I'm super excited to announce my first #publication in a Nature journal which is revealing the most important processes behind streamflow across North America. 🧵

Thanks to @James_R_Craig, @Bryan_A_Tolson and R. Arsenault who had my back on this one.

We are accepting applications for the #Arctic Rivers Summit at the #Alaska Native Heritage Center in Anchorage March 29-31, 2022. The Summit is part of the Arctic Rivers Project funded by @NSF's Navigating the New Arctic Program. More information here👇 sites.google.com/view/arctic…
While lack of snow was a feature of conditions during the #MarshallFire, this was a compound extreme event: Hurricane force winds & extreme drought. How dry? @NWSBoulder #Boulder averages 4.9" of precip. from Sept thru Dec. In 2021, Sep-Dec was the driest (1.2") on record (1893).
“With any snow on the ground, this absolutely would not have happened in the way that it did.”
CU Boulder's @MusselmanKeith explained how the local drought and lack of snow set the stage for the #MarshallFire. @AP apnews.com/article/climate-w…
What action can we take on climate change? Dialogue! Emphasize the seriousness of it for you - bring it into your personal narrative. How is it affecting you? What is your concern? For your family? If you’re a rancher or a farmer, for your livelihood? Communicate your narrative.
Please help us spread the word about the Arctic Rivers Summit - a small-format workshop in Anchorage AK, March 29-31, to discuss the impacts of climate change on Alaskan and Yukon rivers, fish and Indigenous communities. Space is limited. Apply here: sites.google.com/view/arctic…

Thrilled to be leading a new @NSF project with a team of scientists from so many disciplines! instaar.colorado.edu/news-ev…. Working with land managers in the #Colorado Front Range, we'll study how climate change & population pressures impact ecosystems and what we can do. @INSTAAR
