[CRYOLIST] Free online seminar

Good day Cryolisters! 

The Mount Washington Observatory will be hosting our next free online lecture 7 March at 1900 EST. 

Title: Winter Whiplash
Presenters: Alexandra Contosta, Ph.D, Research Assistant Professor, University of New Hampshire; John Campbell, Ph.D, Research Ecologist, US Forest Service
Abstract: "Winter whiplash" is a term used to describe extreme swings in winter weather conditions, often with large sub-to-above freezing temperature shifts. Researchers using data at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in White Mountain National Forest have examined a number of "whiplash events" and their impacts on human and natural systems. Understanding winter whiplash events can lead us to better approaches to potentially mitigating and adapting to our changing winter climate.
