Cottonwood Pass, Colorado
A view westward from Cottonwood Pass (Sawatch Range, Colorado, USA) into the Taylor Park basin. The peaks in the backgorund are composed of igneous and metamorphic rocks ranging in age from early Paleozoic to Eocene, uplifted along the Taylor Park fault.

Climate Horoscopes: Sagitarius
Sagittarius
True to their sign, EXTREME HEAT is overly generous with the temperature, and climate change helps to feed their fiery spirit. They should never be left alone near the thermostat.

Fall Creek meets the Middle Willamette River flows
Fall Creek meets the Middle Willamette River flowsA striking contrast between the clear water in the Middle Fork Willamette River and brown water in Fall Creek. The flows from Fall Creek dam during this time had heavy loads of suspended sediment from the reservoir drawdown.

Zombie Fires
A phenomenon in Arctic boreal forests, zombie fires ignite in warm months, lay dormant in the soil over winter, then resurrect when the weather warms!
Expanded alt text: A panel of illustrations shows a plane putting out a wildfire, the burnt forest during the winter, and a zombie hand on fire reaching out of the ground. Text is described above.

#ClimateCryptids: Sea Monsters
Everybody needs a beach day, right? And if you're a mythical snake-like sea monster, having a living shoreline to relax on is crucial! Living shorelines protect coastlines from storms and flooding and provide important habitat for creatures known and unknown.
