Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: June 2011
http://fraser-river-expedition.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Thursday, June 9, 2011. Nothing gold can stay. After three fast-paced days of sampling and filtering, our expedition has finally come to an end. On Monday we finally got into the Fraser River, thanks to Metro Port Vancouver, who once again offered the services of their Port Fraser. Things I will miss about B.C.:. The mountains, everywhere. Salmon on every menu. The wonderful cafes/bakeries in every small town we visited ( Wendel's. In Fort Langley, ...

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: Don't blink!
http://fraser-river-expedition.blogspot.com/2013/03/dont-blink.html
Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Friday, March 29, 2013. If you squint really hard, you can just barely make out the first tiny trickle of water melting off the snow on the mountains towering over the Fraser Valley. Okay, maybe not. But if the last few days of balmy weather are to be trusted, the spring freshet can’t be far off. I’m back in British Columbia to sample the Fraser River during the most dynamic time of year: the spring freshet. Only time will tell….

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: On the pulse

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Wednesday, April 10, 2013. In the interest of ensuring that I don’t miss the peak, I've decided to extend my time here. Even if it means sleeping in my car—don’t worry, the sampling site has electricity, so I can charge the pump battery! 8212;and hitchhiking back to WHOI, I’m here to see this through!

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: It's always sunny in Cascadia
http://fraser-river-expedition.blogspot.com/2013/04/its-always-sunny-in-cascadia.html
Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Thursday, April 4, 2013. It's always sunny in Cascadia. Last week saw just about the nicest weather you could hope for in the Fraser Valley. In addition to making the water sampling ridiculously pleasant, the solid week of warm sunshine jump-started the snowmelt and the river level is on the rise! It’s a good thing I got to B.C. when I did, because if this is really the freshet, it’s an unusually early start. I had a visit over the weekend from.

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: Pass the salt
http://fraser-river-expedition.blogspot.com/2011/08/pass-salt.html
Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Wednesday, August 3, 2011. En route between the Nahatlatch River and the mouth of the Fraser, we made a brief stop at Lytton to observe the mixing of the blue Thompson, the largest tributary of the Fraser River, with the muddy Fraser. The swirling eddies clearly visible at this point provided a natural platform for our resident physical oceanographer, Rocky Geyer. Posted by WHOI Expeditions. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

In the same way a doctor can monitor a patient's health by analyzing their blood chemistry, scientists can assess the "health" of a river watershed by studying the chemical composition and other properties of the water. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole Research Center, and their international colleagues founded the Global Rivers Group to monitor the health of major rivers worldwide, from the Arctic to the tropics.

Taking the Pulse of the Fraser: The molecules floating in darkness have seen a great light
http://fraser-river-expedition.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-molecules-floating-in-darkness-have.html
Taking the Pulse of the Fraser. May 23 - June 10, 2011. Saturday, April 6, 2013. The molecules floating in darkness have seen a great light. As I struggled to fill the first of five small bottles with filtered water this afternoon, I decided I was finally ready to accept that the freshet has started. It’s a miracle I can type at all right now, given the strain my hands have endured today. Don’t believe me? Little do they know what the river has in store for us…. Hopefully I will watch it continue to rise...
