Our research group at YukonU had boots on the ground and eyes in the sky (plane/UAV) to make observations. These observations help researchers create models to better predict and respond to flooding due to ice jams.30 Apr 2025 22:32 +0000at://did:plc:t7yoifmv5k6ryedvsn5fce6n/app.bsky.feed.post/3lo2typitq222https://bsky.app/profile/snowhydro-ty.bsky.social/post/3llzepxoc422aGreat early Spring trip in the traditional territory of the Tr'ondëk Gwich'in monitoring the max extent of Aufeis (overflow ice). Our group is trying novel ways to measure Aufeis to understand the processes around its formation and potential impacts to the Dempster Highway in northern Yukon04 Apr 2025 21:35 +0000at://did:plc:t7yoifmv5k6ryedvsn5fce6n/app.bsky.feed.post/3llzepxoc422ahttps://bsky.app/profile/snowhydro-ty.bsky.social/post/3lkwe6geybc2cIt's #WorldGlaciersDay. I like skiing on glaciers. Let's keep them around.21 Mar 2025 23:22 +0000at://did:plc:t7yoifmv5k6ryedvsn5fce6n/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkwe6geybc2chttps://bsky.app/profile/snowhydro-ty.bsky.social/post/3lh2yg7v6kk27Every afternoon when I arrive home after picking my kid up from daycare we cheer as we see this big white weather balloon float high into the upper atmosphere. I was wondering how many locations in Canada launch these balloons. Found a list from reddit and plotted it on Google Earth.31 Jan 2025 21:55 +0000at://did:plc:t7yoifmv5k6ryedvsn5fce6n/app.bsky.feed.post/3lh2yg7v6kk27https://bsky.app/profile/snowhydro-ty.bsky.social/post/3lgrj6mmjtk2dDear Blue Sky, here's a video from today at the Alpine weather station in the world famous Wolf Creek Research Basin (Yukon). Holy wind. Does this thing do hashtags? Thanks @rtutto.bsky.social28 Jan 2025 03:28 +0000at://did:plc:t7yoifmv5k6ryedvsn5fce6n/app.bsky.feed.post/3lgrj6mmjtk2d
