Intensive Observations
Intensive Observations
We conducted an intensive campaign for citizen-science snow observations in Thompson Pass, near Valdez, Alaska, on March 18, 2017. Several project scientists and leaders were available to answer your questions and lead the day-long measurement efforts.
The collected measurements provided validation for existing hydrological models. When complete, we’ll post our results to the website so you can see what all the hard work was about!
