The annual Alaska Spring River Break-up webinar will be tomorrow 11am-Noon AKDT. Join Kyle Van Peursem (NWS Alaska-Pacific RFC) and me as we review where conditions are at now and potential risks as Alaska’s big rivers transition from ice cover to open water in the coming weeks. Register at the link. @Climatologist49

Interested in #hydrology? Here's a good one for ya.

Our main well went FUBAR. Tech out now, found the problem, a glitched relay switch to the well, so it is in-op at the moment.

But here's where it gets interesting.

He said there is a SECOND well that we thought was long dead for 25+ years but still wired in, but with a relay bypass, the holding tank was getting water. So old well maybe is now good and we might have 2 working wells????

Pulling water from Middle Earth is still amazing to me.

Dust^2

"Dust has the potential to play a significant role in the nutrient dynamics of alpine watersheds with important ecological implications."

This paper, co-authored by Cluster member Janice Brahney, is an example of how scientists are peeking under the hood of the #CriticalZone to see how it's all working together.
