  • Spring 2010 Alberta Plantwatch Newsletter (PDF)
    Alberta Plantwatch Annual Newsletter - Spring 2010 Greetings to Alberta Plantwatchers! This spring may unfold to be one of our most interesting yet due to the very unusual weather we experienced in 2009…read on! The Weather in 2009 Winter 2009- 2010 in Canada was 4 °C above normal, the warmest and driest since records began in 1948. According to Dave Phillips of Environment Canada, the main reasons were an El Nino, which caused warming of the Pacific Ocean, and shrinking Arctic ice. Precipitation was down 60% in parts of Alberta. Phillips said ‘This may be a dress rehearsal of what we’ll see as normal in years to come’. The El Nino is now strengthening again: see http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=43105&src=eoa-iotd , and http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso_advisory/ensodisc.html. It seems likely that central and northern Alberta will have extreme drought this coming season. This could result in water shortages, insect infestations, and wildfires this summer.
