Rocky Mountain Regional Snowpack Chemistry Map
April 8, 2025
Since 1993, the CO Water Science Center has been collecting a composite sample of the chemistry of most of the annual precipitation at high elevations [> 1,800 meters], in an effort to determine annual concentrations and depositional amounts of selected nutrients and other constituents in snow. This data is provided here via an interactive map with available data and charts by site.

Rocky Mountain Regional Snowpack Chemistry Monitoring Study
Snowpacks collect atmospheric deposition throughout the snowfall season and offer a unique opportunity to obtain a composite sample of the chemistry of most of the annual precipitation at high elevations [> 1,800 meters]. The purpose of the snowpack network is to determine annual concentrations and depositional amounts of selected nutrients and other constituents in snow resulting from atmospheric...
