Scientists finally know where the Colorado River’s missing water is going
For years, water managers have been puzzled as the Colorado River kept delivering less water than expected—even when snowpack levels looked promising.

In fact, this shift explains nearly 70% of the shortfall, tying the mystery directly to the long-running Millennium drought.

It’s safe. The truth, on […]
