The heavy snow and bitter cold have ended for now in Montana and Wyoming, but strong wind and rapid snowmelt are just beginning. Be safe so you can return to your pack in one piece!

McKenzie Skiles is based at the University of #Utah and a frequent collaborator with those studying snow, #snowmelt, and #dust on snow.
Many of these collaborations included research that helps determine how much water is held in snow at high elevations. The snow water equivalence, as it's known.
She tells us that this is vital information for land use and water resource managers.

The linked article discusses the impacts of increasing rainfall in the Arctic, which is caused by the region’s rapid warming and sea ice loss. Some of the main effects are:
- Accelerated #ice loss and #sealevel rise from #rain-on-snow events on the #Greenland ice sheet.
- More #flooding, #permafrost thaw, #landslides, and #avalanches from heavy rain and #snowmelt
- Challenges for wildlife.

Q. - Isn't this a bit early? A. - It's due to #rainfall, not #snowmelt. Ugh!

the semester is over, and i finally have time to draw again! this was based on "the student" by daniel maclise

In Utah's Provo River watershed, scientists explored #TraceElement movement during #snowmelt, analyzing Aluminum, Beryllium, Copper, Lead, and Rare Earth Elements in different particle sizes.
They discovered unique behaviors for each element across river water, #soil water, and snowpack, influenced by stream flow and #WaterQuality.

“California is the poster child — it does not rain in the summer in California, and so the #snowmelt runoff, the #snow that waits and runs off later in the season, is absolutely essential for all of the ecosystems, all of the agriculture, all of the cities or anyone who wants water during the dry season.”

In the Provo River watershed, #Utah, scientists studied trace elements' movement during #snowmelt Analyzing Aluminum, Beryllium, Copper, Lead, and #RareEarth #Elements in different particle sizes, they discovered unique behaviors.
Copper primarily binds to smaller soil particles, unlike more evenly distributed Beryllium, revealing complex element migration patterns affected by water flow and quality.
