I had a great week with colleagues from the US and Japan at the 4th US-Japan Joint meeting on hydrology. We had a productive week that set us on course for some cross-site synthesis research and paper writing. Thank you to everyone for making it fun and productive. The photo above is from a hike we went on as group on the north side of Oʻahu during a field trip to visit one of the island’s drinking water access tunnels.
