Tracking 20 Years of Productivity in Tidal Wetlands

“The Colorado River crisis is one of the clearest examples of climate change in the U.S. The basin has warmed dramatically, especially over the last 30 years, changing virtually every aspect of the water cycle in ways that result in lower streamflows.”
Douglas Kenney, The Colorado River Basin Is Running Out of Water. Not Everyone Is Happy with the Government’s Suggested Solution.
