Hot off the presses!! Exciting news from our Blueshift team!! Cameron Wobus and his co-authors Mark Raleigh, PhD, PE, eric small, Ned Bair, and Karl Rittger have a new article published in Communications Earth & Environment: "Snow Monitoring at Strategic Locations Improves Water Supply Forecasting More than Basin-wide Mapping." This work contributes to the ongoing and incredibly relevant discussion about the efficacy of the tools used for snow monitoring and water forecasting. Cam's favorite quote "the greatest gains in water prediction come from measuring snow at the right places, rather than measuring it everywhere.” Read it here: https://lnkd.in/g57YT2HJ
