Really proud of our new(ish) paper in the special issue on Women in Hydrology in JoH! We developed a framework for balancing water management decisions to support ecological goals in urban rivers @terri_hogue @KrisTaniguchi @re_abdi @Hydro_E_Gallo others

Hydropower can be increased within strict environmental constraints.
Global hydropower potential is 5.27 PWh yr−1, mostly in the Himalayas. Africa’s potential is 0.60 PWh yr−1, four times larger than its developed hydropower. nature.com/articles/s44221-0…
ALT National developed hydropower as a percentage of full profitable potential. The green areas represent countries in which hydropower development can be continued, the red areas represent countries whose developed hydropower exceeds the full profitable potential and the red hatched areas indicate countries whose developed hydropower exceeds the full feasible potential. The bar charts represent the full feasible, full profitable and developed hydropower (in TWh yr−1) of each continent.

More and more evidence is emerging that #nitrogen pollution to waterways can be can be largely eliminated within ~5 to 20 years if we decrease surplus N left on farm fields and city lawns now. Great #AGUpub by Nguyen, @fanny_sarrazin, @rkumar_1982 , et al. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.…

SOAKER TODAY & TUESDAY: Subtropical moisture will stream into the PNW over the next 2 days, resulting in impressive rain totals high elevation snow (along & west of Cascades). Many will see 1.5-3” of rain, with 4-6” along parts of coast, Coast Range & Cascades. #PDX #ORwx #WAwx

No joke had a student do this 100 times on a final project. They were super proud of their code (I mean, it worked, which is sometimes all you need!)

Sure I could write a ‘loop’ or a ‘function’ but what if I just copy and paste and replace all 20 times, instead. Who’s gonna stop me?

If you’re at #AGU22, check out @hydro_kyleb sharing our cool (pun intended) educational lab/demo on urban heat tomorrow!

Tomorrow I'll be sharing about work @pigyachty, @JWolfand & I have done on developing an quantitative ET lab and informal urban heat demo (w/ @OMSI Sci Comm Fellows Program). 10:15 in N246c.

Great photos and read on the LA river, which having studied it for the last 5 years is near and dear to my hydrologic heart

At 51 miles long, it’s one of America’s largest infrastructure projects. Angelenos live along it, but know little of its origins — nor its role in protecting them from devastating floods. Is it time for the Los Angeles River to serve the city in a new way? nyti.ms/3O53LSC

Yes and yes. The struggle is real :/

U.S. colleges are welcoming students who missed a lot of high school instruction in the pandemic.
Many students are behind, especially in math, and getting a degree could be harder. nyti.ms/3STcojK

A preliminary magnitude 4.2 #earthquake just rattled northwest Oregon. It occurred about 9 miles east southeast of Lacomb, Oregon. Did you feel it? I sure did in Portland.

First flush storm today, and I couldn’t be more excited! Circle back to me in late May when it’s still raining #pdxwx

Be VERY careful Wednesday morning during the first few hours of rain. A summer's worth of oils, dirt, & grease will combine with rain to make for slippery spots. It happens every time we have a long dry spell and then rain returns

615 am | The Portland Airport recorded 0.02" of rain ending it's streak of days without measurable rain at 67...just 4 days shy of the longest streak on record set in 1967. Other recent long dry streaks include 57 days in 2017 & 51 in 2012 & 2021. #pdxtst #orwx #wawx
