River Communities, Disaster Science, and the Politics of Water Safety
After environmental disasters, scientific claims about environmental risk face a paradox. Impacted communities turn to scientific bodies for safety information, yet scientific findings are often challenged publicly in post-disaster debates. This study explores this paradox after the 2015 Gold King Mine spill in the Animas River, USA. We ask how a river is declared “safe” after such a disaster, by whom, and based on what metrics. We examine how sc…
Investigating lake-area dynamics across a permafrost-thaw spectrum using airborne electromagnetic surveys and remote sensing time-series data in Yukon Flats, Alaska
Lakes in boreal lowlands cycle carbon and supply an important source of freshwater for wildlife and migratory waterfowl. The abundance and distribution of these lakes are supported, in part, by permafrost distribution, which is subject to change. Relationships between permafrost thaw and lake dynamics remain poorly known in most boreal regions. Here, new airborne electromagnetic (AEM) data collected during June 2010 and February 2016 were used to…
