Lucas Zukiewicz sampling snowfor the Niwot Ridge LTER project,Niwot Ridge, Colorado, Spring2006. The Niwot Ridge LTERproject is the single largest environmentalscience project at CUBoulder. Research at the site isfocused on ecosystem responsesto climate change in alpine tundra.Photo: Mark Williams(INSTAAR).White, James: University Corporation for AtmosphericResearch.
