Watersheds are the areas of landscape that channel water as it falls from the atmosphere as snow or rain, flows through creeks and streams and across varied terrain ever seeking the lowest point as it moves to the sea. Inside the Watershed. Inside the Watershed (2022) is a sound installation situated on the Schuylkill River Trail.

Methane is essential to control, since stabilizing climate requires reducing all anthropogenic greenhouse-gas emissions to net-zero. Atmospheric concentrations. That small concentration of methane in the atmosphere makes an outsized contribution to global heating. And more methane initiatives are surely on the way.

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.
