Hydrologist and Data Scientist living in Bristol, Vermont. Adj. Asst. Professor @UVM. Enjoys all things water and data 💧🌊📈. Posts my own.
One of the toughest losses of 2024 that still doesn't make sense was losing Jarlath a year ago today. Our research projects, UVM, the geospatial community, and Vermont as a whole just aren't the same without him. Appreciated reading this in memoriam piece by 7D www.sevendaysvt.com/arts-culture...

Streamflow drought can have multiple meanings which makes communication challenging — this simple website is a great reference and explainer for understanding how we define streamflow drought
