Yes, was 3.5m of snow above where the flume is, it’s in a small little valley as you can see. The wind blows snow around in the tundra enough to fill in all the low spots. Took 4 days of digging to find the stream and then another day to install the flume, here is what the stream looked like then.

Here is the flume we installed to measure discharge in the stream, although the stream is dry in this photo.

I am also wondering! We will try out some LiPO4Fe batteries from EFOY when we set up a tower in Greenland next month, they are supposed to be good down to -20.

I often show my students this visualization of how atmospheric COβ‚‚ travels around the globe. Our attitude toward burning fossil fuels would change significantly if we could actually see COβ‚‚.
