Since dryness is a critical driver of wildfires, a team of NSF NCAR scientists created a wildfire risk map, updated in real time & open source, to show a detailed view of the moisture content of different types of vegetation across the US & adjacent areas. bit.ly/4hAfW8Z

Summer is winding down, but summer internship season is 1 of our fav times of year! Our 2026 cohort spent the summer working on their research projects, learning from mentors & attending professional development seminars & a poster session. Congrats on wonderful work, interns!

Boulder-area friends: On Monday (8/24) & Tuesday (8/25), the Mesa Lab road will be reduced to one lane for vehicles & will be closed to pedestrians & bicycles due to construction. Expect 5-10 minute delays as flaggers manage traffic. Normal operations resume on Wednesday (8/26).
