CRYSP Lab
We study snow, glaciers and ice and how they impact landscapes and hydrology. We employ a range of field and laboratory approaches to measure and model the many surface processes that are involved.

LogOn: Satellites, lasers help estimate snowpack in drought-stricken regions (VOA)
Video interview with Noah Molotch about how remote sensing technology is helping forecast water availability in the Rocky Mountains. Watch this two-minute, well-edited interview, interspersed with clips of fieldwork and explanatory illustrations. Read more
Californie, quand l'impensable se produit (Radio-Canada)
If there's a place that embodies climate extremes and their impacts on agriculture, it may be California. After years of drought, last spring devastating floods hit the state of the West Coast. Noah Molotch weighs in on the hydrology. (French language broadcast.) Read more
Kirk Bryan Award goes to a team of INSTAARs, colleagues
A team of researchers that included several INSTAAR scientists received the prestigious Kirk Bryan Award from the Quaternary Geology & Geomorphology Division of the Geological Society of America (GSA). The prestigious award honors the authors of a recent paper that advances the science of geomorphology. Read more
