CUAHSI Snow School

Jan. 2018

snow pit observations

The CUAHSI Snow Measurement Field School provides training for conducting snow hydrology fieldwork. In early January 2018, I attended snow shool at the Fraser Experimental Forest in Colorado.

Two days were spent alternating between short classroom sessions, and practice in the field with various tools, observations, and measurement techniques. The third field day culminated in a simulated ground campaign, where my team sought to characterize the snowpack across a large area as if for validating microwave remote sensing measurements.
