California drought, Australia floods: Two sides of La Niña amplified by climate change
“California just notched its driest January and February on record, sounding alarms about a third year of record drought. Across the Pacific Ocean, thousands are fleeing record flooding in Australia. Officials in Brisbane reported 31 inches of rain in six days, and Jonathan Howe, a government meteorologist quoted by the Associated Press, called the amount of rainfall “astronomical.” Meanwhile, in the eastern Horn of Africa, prolonged drought is raising the frightening specter of famine for millions. All of these are related as a multiyear La Niña event, amplified by the effects of climate change, brings consecutive years of drought to some parts of the world and torrential rain to others. … ” Read more from the LA Times here: California drought, Australia floods: Two sides of La Niña amplified by climate change
Drought is killing wild salmon. Wildlife managers hope an extra half-million babies can help
“Scientists estimate that only 6% of the eggs that wild winter-run chinook salmon laid in the Sacramento River last summer survived the punishing drought, so wildlife officials are taking drastic actions to keep the endangered population going. On Wednesday, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released 400,000 juvenile salmon from a hatchery into the river, after releasing almost 125,000 last month. That’s more than double the number of fish they released in 2020 — the first year of the drought — and 220,000 more than last year, to bolster the struggling population of winter-run chinook. Federal scientists are monitoring this year’s cohort to see how well the smolt survive the 352-mile journey from the base of Shasta Dam to the Golden Gate by attaching acoustic tags to hundreds of hatchery fish. … ” Read more from the San Francisco Chronicle here: Drought is killing wild salmon.

Fisheries biologists present California’s ocean salmon abundance forecast for 2022
“At the annual Salmon Information Meeting held virtually today, state and federal fishery scientists presented updates on the numbers of spawning salmon that returned to California’s rivers in 2021 and shared the expected abundance for the upcoming fishing season. The 2022 ocean abundance projection for Sacramento River fall Chinook, a main salmon stock harvested in California waters, is estimated at 396,500 adult salmon, higher than the 2021 forecasts. The Klamath River fall Chinook abundance forecast also came in slightly above the 2021 value, with 200,100 adult Klamath River fall Chinook salmon predicted to be in the ocean this year, a value that remains well below the stock’s historical levels. … ” Read more from the Department of Fish and Wildlife here: Fisheries biologists present California’s ocean salmon abundance forecast for 2022

Q&A: Congressman Josh Harder and US Secretary of Agriculture discuss ways to help Central Valley
“President Joe Biden touched on agricultural issues, from export problems, competition, and infrastructure, during his State of the Union speech on Tuesday. Those are topics Central Valley Congressman Josh Harder, a Democrat, paid close attention to, as the Central Valley region of California is the most productive agricultural region, and one of the areas of the state hit hard by a historic drought. Following the SOTU address, KCRA 3’s Brittany Johnson spoke exclusively to United States Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and Harder about federal funding coming to California to help provide relief to farmers and rural economies, some of which was discussed in Biden’s speech. … ” Read more from KCRA here: Q&A: Congressman Josh Harder and US Secretary of Agriculture discuss ways to help Central Valley
Water manager urges patience with SGMA
“Aaron Fukuda is frustrated with discussions in Sacramento over reforming water rights. Fukuda, who manages the Tulare Irrigation District and leads a local groundwater sustainability agency, explained his concerns to the State Board of Food and Agriculture during a meeting this week on the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act. He was specifically pushing back on a new white paper from a group of law scholars that encourages the Legislature to revise the state’s water laws to better account for drought and climate change. Fukuda argued that “opening up water rights” for fully appropriated streams would divert critical resources from sustainability projects to instead cover court fees, and “that, in my mind, is a bad place to be.” ... ” Read more from Agri-Pulse here: Water manager urges patience with SGMA
Farmers wiped out habitat to reduce disease from wildlife. For birds, their efforts backfired.
“A deadly 2006 E. coli outbreak traced to spinach from a central California farm prompted growers there to remove meadows and woods lining their fields, amid fears they harbored disease-bearing wild animals. It turns out that strategy might have done more harm than good. Birds at California farms with wild habitat nearby were less likely to have disease-causing microbes in their feces, while they also fed less on farmers’ crops, scientists have learned. The new findings point to potential benefits of farming alongside nature, and the ways in which strategies aimed at fending off wildlife can have unexpected consequences. The research suggests “that farming landscapes with natural habitat tend to be good for conservation, farmers, and public health,” said Daniel Karp, an ecologist at the University of California, Davis whose lab led the work. ... ” Read more from the Anthropocene here: Farmers wiped out habitat to reduce disease from wildlife.

Sewer Treasure: Stanford engineers reveal how to optimize processes for transforming sulfur in wastewater to valuable materials
“One person’s wastewater is another person’s treasure. A new Stanford University study(link is external) paves the way to mining sewage for valuable materials used in fertilizers and batteries that could someday power smartphones and airplanes. The analysis, published recently in ACS ES&T Engineering, reveals how to optimize electrical processes for transforming sulfur pollution, and could help lead to affordable, renewable energy-powered wastewater treatment that creates drinkable water. “We are always looking for ways to close the loop on chemical manufacturing processes,” said study senior author Will Tarpeh, an assistant professor of chemical engineering at Stanford. “Sulfur is a key elemental cycle with room for improvements in efficiently converting sulfur pollutants into products like fertilizer and battery components.” ... ” Read more from Stanford University here: Sewer Treasure: Stanford engineers reveal how to optimize processes for transforming sulfur in wastewater to valuable materials
Seawater desalination possibly expanding in California amid worsening drought
“As the pressure on California’s water supply grows more intense this summer, another urban area could begin the process of producing their own. The California Coastal Commission is set to vote later this spring on what would be the state’s second major coastal desalination plant in Huntington Beach, south of Los Angeles. Glenn Farrel is with the industry group, CalDesal. “I think folks are starting to recognize that there are uncertain sources of supply here that our water supplies and our precipitation, our snowpack is becoming less and less reliable, and less and less certain. And it’s time to start exploring alternative supply development,” Farrel believes. … ” Read more from ABC 7 here: Seawater desalination possibly expanding in California amid worsening drought
Calif. snowpack survey points to drought-laden 2022
“California’s snowpack is well-below average at the end of what should have been the state’s wettest months of the year, signaling another dry year ahead. The Department of Water Resources (DWR) conducted the third snow survey of the season at Phillips Station, south of Lake Tahoe. With January and February coming in as the driest in state history, the survey recorded 35 inches of snow depth and a snow water equivalent of 16 inches. Those numbers come in at 68 percent of the average for this time of year at that location. … ” Read more from the San Joaquin Valley Sun here: Calif. snowpack survey points to drought-laden 2022
California adopts first-in-the-nation microplastics reduction strategy
“Last week, the Ocean Protection Council adopted California’s Statewide Microplastics Strategy. The strategy is the first of its kind in the nation, focusing on outlining steps to address microplastic pollution, an emerging contaminant of concern. Microplastics are defined in California as plastics that are between one nanometer and five millimeters in size.

Column: ‘Smokey the Beaver’ and the role furry aquatic critters play in preventing wildfire spread
writes, “These warm winter days have kept my hands busy in the soil and forest, reducing the amount of time I would ordinarily spend on research. However, this week I did take time to follow the sandhill cranes north and join over 50 people to attend the Scott River Watershed Information Forum in Siskiyou County, Calif. Over the course of three days, this event featured a wealth of information, ranging from site visits to mine tailings restoration projects and shaded fuel breaks, to presentations in the historic and very comfortable Etna Theater. I was particularly struck by one talk, “Smokey the Beaver,” by Dr. Emily Fairfax of CSU Channel Islands. Emily opened with the premise, “The Western United States used to have much more wetland area than it does today… but as it stands, beavers can create and maintain wetland habitat that persists through flood, drought and fire.” … ” Read more from the Calaveras Enterprise here: Column: ‘Smokey the Beaver’ and the role furry aquatic critters play in preventing wildfire spread
Can cloud seeding help quench the thirst of the U.S. West?
“Desperate for water, several Western states have expanded decades-old programs to increase precipitation through cloud seeding, a method of weather modification that entails releasing silver iodide particles or other aerosols into clouds to spur rain or snowfall. Within the past two years, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, and California have expanded cloud seeding operations, with seeding a key plank in the Colorado River Basin Drought Contingency Plan. Cloud seeding operations have also expanded in water-stressed regions outside the U.S. … Some of the renewed attention on cloud seeding is driven by fresh evidence that it actually works — at least when seeding for snow. … ” Read more from Yale E360 here: Can cloud seeding help quench the thirst of the U.S. West?

For the planet’s sake and our own, we should let rivers run free
Tom Kiernan, President and CEO of American Rivers, writes, “ … The Klamath dam removal project is a substantial step forward in protecting our nation’s rivers — our life support system of fresh, clean water. This free-flowing stretch of the Klamath River will better support the tribes and local communities that rely on native salmon populations, which are being even further threatened by rising temperatures. Still, too many other rivers in the U.S. remain in crisis. Centuries of pollution, industrialization, and disruptions by dams have sapped them of their vitality and resilience. Only a fraction of the 3 million miles of rivers in the U.S. are allowed to flow naturally. Hundreds of thousands of dams and other barriers have a chokehold on rivers nationwide. … ” Read more from Undark Magazine here: For the planet’s sake and our own, we should let rivers run free

It’s a variation on a familiar theme, only worse. There appears to be no avoiding serious effects of global warming and a shrinking window for mitigation and adaptation to try to minimize them, according to the U.N. report released Monday.

Farmers, ranchers, fishermen, tribes and a slew of government agencies have been fighting in court for over two decades for rights to obtain water from the Klamath Project, a massive system of dams, tunnels and canals that irrigates 230,000 acres of agricultural land and supplies water for four national wildlife refuges. … ” Read more from Courthouse News Service here: Judge advances lawsuit over disputed rights to water in Oregon lake
Parched rivers set to receive a little rain
“As we wait patiently for our “Miracle March,” there is at least some rain in the immediate forecast. While it’s not much, anything at this point is beneficial. Currently we have way more rivers closed to fishing than open. As for the upcoming rain, the Humboldt area could see up to a half inch, which could open back up the Mad and Van Duzen rivers temporarily. Further north, where most of the rain has and will fall, the Chetco saw a pretty good rise Monday but has since turned green.

Seawater intrusion threatens California’s coastal agriculture. Here’s how the Pajaro Valley is pushing back.
“Seawater intrusion was first documented along California’s coast decades ago. But climate change is amplifying the problem. In the Pajaro Valley, which is known for its apple orchards and strawberry fields, there’s a heavy reliance on groundwater. Years of overuse created space for seawater to creep in. The community formed the Pajaro Valley Water Management District in the early 1980s to explore ways to curb the encroaching seawater, because salty water can’t be consumed or used to irrigate crops. The agency was among the first to submit their plans for California’s Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, enacted in 2014. … ” Read more from KAZU here: Seawater intrusion threatens California’s coastal agriculture.
