A Walk Through the Hydroclimate Network in Yosemite National Park: River Chemistry
This is the chemistry component of the hydroclimate network described in Jessica Lundquist's Nature
Notes article “Monitoring snow from the beach in San Diego: Automatic snow sensors in the Sierra”.
Efforts to link large-scale atmospheric circulation to snowpack and snowmelt–driven river discharge
and riverine chemistry will ultimately contribute to the accuracy of climate change models and their
ability to predict downstream effects on human use.
