While herring spawn and flowers signal the coming of spring at lower elevations, it's still wintery up on the mountains.
@mountainmap from @HakaiGeospatial is part of a team with @VIUniversity measuring the snow pack on Mount Arrowsmith before it melts and flows to the coast.

Ever wonder what it's like to work at the Hakai Institute?
Sometimes our IT folks have to climb mountains just to "turn it on and off"
Next up in our Behind Hakai Q&A series is Chris Davis!

On Nov 15, 2021 an #AtmosphericRiver hit the #Fraser Valley and Canyon. In support of a BC Salmon Restoration Innovation Fund #BCSRIF project and with support from @HakaiInstitute, we flew the Fraser Canyon to document the #floods and #landslides that occurred. 1/18 #BCStorm

Taking biologists to wild new places. @HakaiInstitute is using #drones to map mussel beds on rocky exposed shorelines that we can't normally visit. Stay safely in the boat, get great data, employ new technologies. Win, win, win.@HakaiGeospatial @alyssamina @khinc

#HerringSpawning is beautiful to watch, but we know little about what triggers the shoals to turn shores of #CalvertIsland a verdant turquoise. Drones help us map the spawn's day-to-day progression to understand the #science behind the beauty.
