PCIC Lead Hydrologist Markus Schnorbus was quoted in an article on the Fraser River in Canadian Geographic magazine. The article explores the climate-exacerbated impacts of pine beetle infestation and forest harvesting on the Fraser River. The article also explains how these will affect runoff, river temperature and, as a result, people and ecosystems that depend on the Fraser.
