Protect Our Winters How will atmospheric rivers (ARs) change in a warming climate? The simple answer is that the strongest ARs will get considerably wetter, delivering higher total precipitation amounts. The reason? Warmer air carries more water vapor, so these 'rivers in the sky' will get 'deeper'

New feature with Protect Our Winters about my passion for creating art about glacier change! I became a Creative Alliance member in 2023.
