2015 CUAHSI Spring Cyberseminar Series - Adrian Harpold

"Water vapor fluxes from snow covered landscapes: the importance of biotic and abiotic-mediated processes". A discussion of emerging understanding of abiotic vapor fluxes (interception, snowpack sublimation, etc.) and the role of snow water in sustaining transpiration will be discussed in the context of changing snowpack dynamics from climate change and forest disturbance. Dr. Harpold is an Assistant Professor of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences at the University of Nevada, Reno.
