Mueller , Erich R. 1 ; Pitlick , John 2 1 Department of Geography, University of Colorado 2 Department of Geography, University of Colorado Stream channel morphology and sediment textures are a product of the basin-wide delivery of sediment and water. Differences in sediment supply, particularly bed load, between watersheds...

Molotch , Noah 1 1 Geography and INSTAAR, CU-Boulder New remote sensing and in situ measurement capabilities afford improved understanding of distributed ecohydrological processes in mountainous regions. In this regard, distributed ecohydrologic instrument clusters allow us to observe micro-scale variability in snow-vegetation interactions. Clusters deployed in the Central and Southern...

Keen , Richard A. 1 1 University of Colorado Although the Colorado Front Range can be considered a semi-arid climate zone, it is subject to occasional large snowfalls. About once every two years, on average, a single storm will leave one to two meters of new snow in the foothills...

Hellmuth , Molly 1 1 International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) at the Earth Institute of Columbia University Achieving water security is a major challenge of the century, particularly in developing country contexts. Population growth and economic development are significantly increasing water demands; while decreasing water quality is...

Dozier , Jeff 1 1 Donald Bren School of Environmental Science & Management, University of California at Santa Barbara In the 21st century, a crucial question for mountain snowpacks worldwide is: How do we reliably predict snowmelt runoff and associated demand as climate changes, populations grow, land use evolves, and...

Doesken , Nolan 1 1 Colorado State Climatologist and Senior Research Associate, Director, Fort Collins Weather Station Underlying most work in hydrologic science is a basic knowledge of climatic characteristics of precipitation -- the quantity, frequency, intensity, duration of precipitation as well as information on how precipitation varies geographically, seasonally,...
