Bring it! #atmosphericriver #7dayforecast . 5” t Bring it!
#atmosphericriver #7dayforecast
.
5” to 10” of rain over the next 7 days in #NorCal!
.
And what does this mean for the California mountains? ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
.
How much ❄️? That depends on temperature.
.
I’m sure you’ve heard the old refrain that 1” of rain = 10” of snow.
.
Sometimes this is true: when the temperature hovers around 30°F.
.
If temps are a bit warmer, the ratio is more like 5-to-1.
.
And if it’s colder? Loads more fluffy, dry snow. At 20°F the ratio is more like 20-to-1!
.
Interested in learning more about the dynamic variation of regional microclimates across the Klamath Mountains of NW California and SW Oregon? How about paleoclimate regimes, how those have shifted to what we have today, and what the future may hold?
.
Check our Part 4 of our winter webinar series this Thursday: “Climate of the Klamath Mountains” with Rosemary Sherriff.

.
YES!
.
It’s an anonymous comment like that that makes all the hard work of piecing together this 10 part webinar series on the Natural History of the Klamath Mountains entirely worth it.
.
I’m so glad we found each other, whoever you are! 😆
.
This week is Part 2: Fire in the Klamath Mountains with Jeff Kane (with Part 3: Geology next week!).
.
Here’s a plant well adapted to life with fire in the Klamath: beargrass (Xerophyllum tenax) is quick to regenerate on open serpentine slopes after a burn.
.
Join us each Thursday through March 11 if you like at 7pm. All sessions are recorded so you can catch up on any you’ve missed!

Next up in our Winter Webinar Series: Fire in the Next up in our Winter Webinar Series: Fire in the Klamath Mountains
.
This session will be presented by Dr. Jeff Kane, Associate Professor of Fire Ecology and Fuels Management at @humboldtstate and Director of HSU’s Wildland Fire Lab.
.
He shares these tidbits about fire in the Klamath to get us started:
.
🔥 More than 80% of the area burned in the Klamath Mountains over the past 30 years was ignited by lightning
.
🔥 Many plant species in the Klamath are adapted to fire, enhancing flowering, seed release, and germination
.
🔥 Fire scars on trees tell the story of frequent fire in the Klamath, with many forests historically burning every 15 years
.
🔥 Smoke-filled valleys during a fire cools water temperatures in fish-bearing streams and rivers of the Klamath
.

Hey you! What’s that green stuff growing on thos Hey you! What’s that green stuff growing on those rocks?!?
.
Look a little more closely... it’s not all moss.
.
You may be looking at liverworts!
.
The most simple way to tell the difference between a moss and a leafy liverwort:
.
Most leafy liverworts will have leaves that attach to their stems in a flattened, 2D fashion.
.
On the contrary, most mosses have leaves that spiral around the stem.

Since we could certainly all use a bit more fun in our lives, it was recommended to us that each session in the Klamath Mountains Natural History winter webinar series (which begins 1/7!) feature its own pairing -- food and/or bev.
.
Brilliant. And why not. Thank you @salmonriveroutpost For the suggestion!
.
I present to you the Glaciertini: a fine drink to accompany the first session in this 10-part series where Justin Garwood will tell the story of the Klamath Mountains' Last "tini" Glacier. 
.
It also happens to be the signature cocktail of his research team. Per his and colleague Mike van Hattem's instructions:
.
1. When setting out on your expedition, allow olives (3 per serving) to slosh marinate in vermouth over a 10 mile hike.
.
2. Chill vodka, olives, and cup (titanium preferred) in a 34 degree glacier melt stream for 4 hours.
.
3. Combine and sip responsibly on a chunk of granite while taking in a hard earned, grand alpine view.
.
Granite Lake (as pictured above) in the Trinity Alps is an ideal location to experience a Glaciertini.

.
Fun facts about the Klamath's Last Glacier:
.
The ice beetle, Nebria praedicta, lives here and nowhere else on Earth!
.
American pipits forage for insects on Grizzly Glacier.
.
Grizzly Glacier is the lowest elevation glacier in the US south of the Olympic Peninsula.
.
It's so cool on the slopes below Grizzly Glacier that spring flowering alpine shooting star (Primula tetrandra) do not bloom until September!

These climax communities of the Klamath Ranges are restricted to the highest peaks above 6,900’ in the Siskiyou, Marble, Scott, and Salmon Mountains, and Trinity Alps.
.
Their peaks are crowned by two regionally rare conifers:
.
1. whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) which is an outlier of a much broader range.

2. Klamath foxtail pine (Pinus balfouriana ssp. balfouriana) which is an endemic.

Field Guide to Manzanitas

By Michael Kauffmann, Michael Vasey and Tom Parker

Manzanita’s center of biodiversity is in the California Floristic Province, where they are the “rock stars” of woody shrub diversity. Ranging from the Sierra Nevada mountains to coastal bluffs along the Pacific, from temperate rainforests along the North Coast to arid mountain slopes in Southern California, a wealth of manzanita species and subspecies can be […]
