Wildfire is an essential driver of hydrological and geomorphological change in the landscapes of the western United States. The changes catalyzed by wildfire affect the hydrology of landscape and can result in catastrophic flooding.
According to the New Mexico Forestry Division, during the 2020 fire season, 44,933 acres of land were burned due to wildfire. Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and intensity of wildfires in New Mexico. This creates a need to develop proactive measures to prepare and respond to wildfires and post-wildfire flooding. In addition, headwater systems in New Mexico are highly vulnerable to wildfire. Many Tribal communities are located within the headwaters and this places them in a unique position to be the leaders in developing responses to wildfire.

A few species of snakes are called “sidewinders,” and new research finds their belly skin is as odd as their way of getting around.
Most snakes get from A to B by bending their bodies into S-shapes and slithering forward headfirst. Sidewinders, however found in the deserts of North America, Africa, and the Middle East have an odder way of getting around. These snakes lead with their mid-sections instead of their heads, slinking sideways across loose sand.
Scientists took a microscopic look at the skin of sidewinders to see if it plays a role in their unique method of movement. They discovered that sidewinders’ bellies are studded with tiny pits and have few, if any, of the tiny spikes found on the bellies of other snakes.
