Can We Move an Atmospheric River

Guests: Dr. Upmanu Lall, Director of the Columbia Water Center at Columbia University


Introduction: Since the beginning of this year, California has been the focal point of international news all due to flooding caused by an on-going atmospheric river. The big stream of moisture has left a large footprint over the state by improving drought and shattering many rainfall and snowfall records. But all of this rain and snow comes with a price that may be too high for some residents to handle. This has led some researchers to ask the question: Can We Move an Atmospheric River? Today we are joined by Dr. Upmanu Lall to talk about that very question. Dr. Lall thanks for being here!
