    “How do we get from dry, degraded, and dewatered to lush, wet meadows that feed our precious rivers and support fish and wildlife? We have to get creative.
    [Their] restoration work with partners in Ackerson Meadow and Faith Valley Meadow show two very distinct approaches to achieving amazing results.
    [Their] new short film “Restoring Mountain Meadows” dives into our work to restore California’s iconic meadows! We’ll take you uphill into the Sierra Nevada and deep into the restoration work that is healing one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth…”

  6. I guess it is #spring in #Denver 😢
    • first lawn mow, good choice on the fescue to my other ½ - especially with the ugly #water #summer we WILL have in the #USWest :baduk:
    • one of the local #beekeepers put in a #bee #swarm #hive in the back of our yard, evidently it is ‘that time of year’ 🙃

  16. Unravelling The Dance Of Earthquakes - Evidence Of Partial Synchronization Of The Northern San Andreas Fault And Cascadia Megathrust

    “Previous paleoseismic work has suggested a possible stress triggering relationship between the Cascadia subduction zone and the northern San Andreas fault based on similar event timings. Turbidite successions correlated to both systems may support this hypothesis. Historic earthquakes in 1980 and 1992 in the Cascadia subduction zone and the 1906 earthquake on the northern San Andreas fault left turbidite records that are temporally well constrained by bomb-carbon−supported age-depth models..."
