Our after school vernal pool group finally made it up to the pool on March 6th ( all kitted out with snowshoes) We drilled down through 50 cm of frozen ice/snow to find water (very smelly but water none the less).

Did you know we can take scientific measurements  with something we call a Snow Pillow?

 

The snow pillow, as pictured at left, measures the water content (snow water equivalent) of the snowpack during the winter months. Data for the current month are posted on the harvard Forest website at: archived snow pillow data .

See real time graphs such as the one at right for graphs of selected variables. - real-time-data-graphs
