We are collecting precipitation, stream, and groundwater isotopes across Northern Colorado to better understand the atmospheric processes that deliver precipitation to this region and the processes that convert rainwater to runoff and groundwater. Eventually, this data will be publicly available via the CSU Geospatial Centroid. This project is funded by a seed grant from the Colorado Water Center.
All samples will be analyzed using our Picarro water isotope analyzer housed in NREL EcoCore.
