Ever wonder how #beaver damming influences #peatland greenness? @NicholeStoll shared some insights from her work with drones 🦫💙🌱🏔 at the International Beaver Symposium this afternoon!
Hey, friends, we just gave our company to planet Earth. OK, it’s more nuanced than that, but we’re closed today to celebrate this new plan to save our one and only home. We’ll be back online tomorrow.

Great day checking out the wetland at Burstall Pass and the C flux set of @ericjamesmurray. Even managed to see a grizzly and find some very old #beaver cuts (likely pre-fur trade)

Installed two subsurface temperature stations today using CR1000 loggers from @Campbellsci_CA. 8 holes were drilled into two wooden stakes which were placed into the ground. Thermocouple was inserted into the holes to record temperature at different depths. @UW_Hydromet
A few shots taken today at Burstall wetland. Been anxiously waiting for the snow to melt to begin my research. I’ll be installing two sub-surface ground temp stations here in the next few days. @UW_Hydromet#hydrology
Great day completing installs at Fortress with @LindseyLangs. Excited to be back in the Rockies and looking forward to starting my field work comparing the influence of depth and duration of frozen ground on water and carbon fluxes at Burstall wetland. @UW_Hydromet@MWFutures
Having a cute “field assistant” with us @LindseyLangs@ericjamesmurray brightened up the fieldwork day! 😌 We also installed micro-lysimeters in our sites in the past week. Can’t wait to see how water in subalpine wetlands enters the atmosphere! (Photo credit: Eric) #UW_Hydromet
