Between 2012 and 2015, California suffered from the highest water drought since recordings started in this state.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Up to 2\/3 of its water resources are coming from the Sierra Nevada snowpack. Understanding the effect of the droughts on the mountain snowpack is crucial.<\/p>\n

Historically, the study of mountain hydrology and the water cycle has been largely observational, with variables extrapolated from a few infrequent manual measurements. Low-power wireless mesh networking<\/strong> technology has evolved significantly over recent years. With this technology, a node is the size of a deck of cards, is self-contained and battery-operated. When switched on, nodes form a multi-hop low-power wireless network, automatically.<\/p>\n

Next-generation hydrologic science and monitoring requires real-time, spatially distributed measurements of key variables including: soil moisture, air\/soil temperature, snow depth, and air relative humidity.<\/p>\n

\"Sensor<\/a>The SnowHow project provides these measurements by deploying low-power mesh networks across the California Sierra Nevada. Off-the-shelf commercial solutions are available today which offer >99.999% end-to-end data reliability and a decade of battery lifetime<\/strong>. A new wireless network can be deployed in a couple of hours and report sensor data minutes after it was measured.<\/p>\n
