Greetings,
The COMET Program is pleased to announce the publication of the new lesson, "Primary Influences on Water Temperature for Inland Streams". The temperature of inland streams, rivers, and reservoirs affects aquatic wildlife, riparian vegetation, and infrastructure. There are a number of interrelated variables that drive water temperatures that are related to both natural processes and human-induced changes to the watershed. Anticipating the impact of these water temperature drivers is an important part of planning for climate change. This lesson highlights studies, mainly in the northwestern U.S., that describe the relationship between recent climatic changes and the response in rivers and streams.
This 30-minute lesson is a prerequisite part of The COMET Program’s instructor-led course, Water Temperature Impacts Under Climate Change, which is sponsored by the Climate Change and Water Working Group (http://www.ccawwg.us/), with specific funding from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Although it is part of this larger effort, the lesson will be useful as a standalone lesson for those working in the fields of climate change and water temperature. Please follow this link to the MetEd description page that provides additional information and a link to begin the lesson: Primary Influences on Water Temperature for Inland Streams https://www.meted.ucar.edu/training_module.php?id=1081.
