From an email to CUAHSI members today: A quick reminder that we invite you to join us for a special CUAHSI Cyberseminar this Thursday at a special time hosted by Roy Haggerty, Tom Meixner, and Patrick Belmont, members of the Water, Sustainability and Climate (WSC) community. Thursday, January 23rd, 2 …
CUAHSI is the consortium of universities for the advancement of hydrologic science, inc. and Kent State University became a full member of the consortium in December 2013. That’s good timing, because for the last year I’ve been sitting on the organizing committee for a virtual workshop sponsored by CUAHSI and …
While I’ll be missing the festivities at the 125th anniversary edition of the the Geological Society of America, my able collaborator Sarah Lewis will be presenting our work in a session on “Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology: Past, Present, and Future.” Here’s what she’ll be showing off: Revisiting watershed drainage density: …
Here’s a nice EPA video highlighting the work being done by Bill Shuster and other EPA scientists on the connections between green infrastructure, watershed scale stormwater management, and combined sewer overflows. We’ve been reading and talking about some of this work in Urban Hydrology.
Just the messenger about this great opportunity to get hydrology research experience at one of the pivotal locations for the development of hydrologic science working with fantastic colleagues: Hillslope hydrology component of the Hubbard Brook REU: We are seeking applicants for an REU position at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest …
The “blue book” has been updated and you can read and download a pre-publication PDF on the National Academies’ website for free. I’ve just been listening to a CUAHSI webinar summarizing the report, and I was please to see that a lot of the questions I’m interested in were highlighted …
I gave two talks at the AGU meeting in San Francisco in December. One talk was in session “EP31G Predictive Understanding of Coupled Interactions Among Water, Life, and Landforms II”, and it was recorded and made available on Vimeo. While all the talks in the session were extremely interesting, if …
The following talk will be presented in the 2011 AGU fall meeting session on “EP41F. Posteruptive Processes Operating on Volcanic Landscapes I” on Thursday, December 8th from 9:15 to 9:30 am. Controls on the hydrologic evolution of Quaternary volcanic landscapes Anne J. Jefferson and Noemi d’Ozouville 1. Geography and Earth …
Jefferson, A. 2011. Seasonal versus transient snow and the elevation dependence of climate sensitivity in maritime mountainous regions, Geophysical Research Letters, 38, L16402, doi:10.1029/2011GL048346. Abstract: In maritime mountainous regions, the phase of winter precipitation is elevation dependent, and in watersheds receiving both rain and snow, hydrologic impacts of climate change …
Major congratulations to two Watershed Hydrogeology Lab graduate students who have finished writing their MS theses and will defend them next week. Ralph McGee and Cameron Moore both started in our MS in Earth Science program in August 2009, and less than two years later they have each completed impressive …
