Excited to share that our new paper is out! https://t.co/pev56GJVLI

We reconstruct Oregon Cascades snowpack using 🌲💍 and assess the severity of the 2014-15 snow drought in a long-term context.

“It’s maybe a year’s worth of breathing room”: Lake Powell is rising — for now.

A large snowpack is quickly melting into the critical Colorado River reservoir, but experts say it will do little to reverse the effects of a historic megadrought. https://t.co/n3BL5fuoka

Seeing the high flow event at Glen Canyon Dam a couple weeks ago with @emyounghiguera and @100thMeridianKJ was definitely a career highlight for me! #ColoradoRiver #gcdamp

44 pages, 8 months, and many (many) hours of Smallmouth bass Ad Hoc Group meetings later ... we present to you the Nonnative Fish Strategic Plan 🐟🐠
I'm incredibly thankful for this experience and my co-chair. One step closer to protecting native fishes in the Grand Canyon!

"I’m a big believer in law, I’m a big believer in food security, but I’m an even bigger believer in math," says John Enstminger of @SNWA_H2O. "The law is complicated, the politics are complicated, the science and the math are not complicated."

It's official - the top of Intake No. 1 is now visible and the low lake level pumping station is now operational. The new low lake pumping station was completed in 2020 to ensure the delivery of high-quality water in Southern Nevada. Learn more at https://t.co/o0rJqlXiFX

Awesome day learning about the Las Vegas Wash. It's an important resource for Lake Mead and provides critical habitat for many native species. Thanks for the tour, @SNWA_H2O @lvvwd !
