Runoff from melting snow is an essential water resource for many communities and ecosystems, but when snow melts too rapidly in a short time, it can be destructive. To better understand the processes that drive such melting, researchers mapped extreme snowmelt events over 30 years.
Researchers are building a future in which wearable devices will allow clinicians to gather patient data remotely and provide "care in place" to patients at home.
Synthetic chemicals known as PFAS not only pose a long-term threat to groundwater quality, but also a long-term challenge to scientists tasked with cleaning them up.
