Measuring turbidity in streams near Mount Baker, WA.
At Mount Baker, Washington, observers noted continuing landslide activity in the upper Middle Fork Nooksack drainage that resulted in small debris flows and muddy floods. Scientists from multiple agencies and institutions coordinated observations, surveying, and sampling to gain an understanding of the situation.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Ship Rainier
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Ship Rainier is backdropped by Mount Baker, an active Cascade Range stratovolcano, in Washington. In September 2019, the Rainier conducted a bathymetric survey along Hawai‘i Island's Puna coast, where lava entered the ocean during Kīlauea Volcano's 2018 eruption.
