Study Shows Snow Moving Upslope as Mountains Warm in Idaho

By Don Comis
January 25, 2011

An analysis of more than 50 years of records at the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) premier mountain observatory in Idaho shows that climate warming is causing the rain/snow transition elevation to move upslope.

During the past five decades, mean temperatures have risen 4 to 5 degrees Fahrenheit, according to an Agricultural Research Service (ARS) analysis of data from the Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed (RCEW) near Boise, Idaho. This warming has occurred across a range of elevations. ARS is USDA's principal intramural scientific research agency, and this research supports the USDA commitment to responding to climate change.
