How Will Climate Change Affect the Stillaguamish Watershed?
... The Stillaguamish watershed is projected to experience decreasing snowpack and widespread changes in streamflow timing, flooding, and summer minimum flows but little change in average annual streamflow volume. Warmer winter temperatures will reduce snowpack volume in the Stillaguamish watershed and ...

Whenever the planet's temperature decreases, the black flowers tend to predominate, they absorb a little heat from the sun, which causes the planet's temperature to rise, allowing a greater proliferation of black daisies, more absorption of heat, and so on. As the planet becomes hotter white daisies ...
