NOAA's #GreatLakes Environmental Research Lab will be taking an "indefinite hiatus" from communications due to staff cuts. GLERL communicates critical weekly updates about the extent of harmful algal blooms in Lake Erie - like the one that left my hometown of Toledo without drinking water in 2014

New paper - how does moving window length affect the annual minima? Relevant for SPI/SPEI #drought hess.copernicus.org/articles/29/...

In #Ohio? Worried about this summer's #drought? Want to know how tree rings tell us about climate change? Want to know what models predict about Ohio under #climatechange? Want pizza? Come out to the Columbus Science Pub Jan 9 at 7:30pm. boxoffice.upfrontps.org/event/columb...

Stop by Monday morning #AGU to see/talk about advances in bringing #hydrology principles/models to proxy #reconstructions agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...

Recent study looking at centuries of past and future #drought and pluvial change across North America agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

New publication. Risk of inflating correlation for repeated regressions in tree-ring reconstructions #research #treering link.springer.com/article/10.1...

An update to the #research #reproducibility policy at Journal of Water Resources Planning and Management doi.org/10.1061/JWRM...

(4) We are only a week into December. It will be interesting to see where total Intermountain precip stands in March

(3) Finally, #AtmosphericRivers are more important for the coast, as we're seeing with the damage from this storm. They play less of a role in the Rockies (see our supplement), but it looks like this storm might infiltrate into the region and bring plenty of snow

(2) A reminder that there is a lot of natural variability in the climate system. Over the last century, #ElNino tends to decrease total winter (Dec-Feb) precip in Wyo, Utah, but individual storms don't always fall neatly into the long-term pattern

(1) Interesting timing with the massive #AtmosphericRiver in the Pacific NW. Under ongoing El Nino, we expect Pacific moisture to head south, not north

New study with former postdoc Max Torbenson on the Morava River. Baseflow separation providing stronger reconstruction target t.co/2xNOg7W4eI

Great time at Inaugural Interdisciplinary Water Research Symposium. Student-led all day event highlighting water-related research. Exciting depth and breadth of water research going on here! Photo from lunchtime career panel
