Park Williams is a hydroclimatologist studying the impacts of climate on terrestrial water systems. His research is providing new insight into how climate change influences drought, wildfires, and tree mortality. In this clip, he explains how vapor pressure deficit, a measure of the atmosphere’s dryness, can lead to changes in ecosystems. Visit his profile to learn more about his research! #MacFellow 🔗 https://lnkd.in/d3YQWDjK

🏔️ ❄️🚰 About 75% of water resources in the Western US are from mountainous watersheds. Snowfall and snowmelt are key to recharging rivers and groundwater aquifers that provide freshwater. Berkeley Lab scientists are studying how climate change could affect the amount of #snowfall and #WaterAvailability in the coming decades, finding that snowpack in the Western United States may decrease 20-30% by the 2050’s and 40-60% in the 2100’s.
