In my absence a lot had changed at my bend in Centennial Brook. When I had left, there had been snow on the ground but now much of the top of the stream was frozen especially in the shallower areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The snow wasn&#8217;t new as it hasn&#8217;t been warm enough recently for a thaw. The snow seemed to have frozen to have a granular texture. There were tracks from some mammal that was larger than a squirrel but smaller than the average dog. The tracks were old though so much of the detail of them had disappeared and all that remained was the patterned depression in the snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intersecting the larger set of tracks was a smaller set of tracks probably a vermin of some sort. The area was much more exposed than previous times as there were no leaves on the trees around and this area wasn&#8217;t inhabited by conifers. This led to more sunlight reaching the area which may lead to the snow melting faster once the temperatures increase above freezing. At the end of winter, this increase in sunlight may lead to an increase in the productivity of the plants as they begin to bloom for spring.<a href=\"https:\/\/photos.google.com\/photo\/AF1QipMlnX0XoGWt4WJs89b-n9pVAfIz5imaoa-4dpSG\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"605\" height=\"814\" data-id=\"30\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.26\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.26\u202fPM.png 605w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.26\u202fPM-223x300.png 223w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"611\" height=\"815\" data-id=\"29\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.14\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.14\u202fPM.png 611w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.14\u202fPM-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 611px) 100vw, 611px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"611\" height=\"808\" data-id=\"31\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.05\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.05\u202fPM.png 611w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.45.05\u202fPM-227x300.png 227w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 611px) 100vw, 611px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"33\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.56\u202fPM-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.56\u202fPM-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.56\u202fPM-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.56\u202fPM-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.56\u202fPM.png 1086w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"764\" data-id=\"34\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.49\u202fPM-1024x764.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.49\u202fPM-1024x764.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.49\u202fPM-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.49\u202fPM-768x573.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.49\u202fPM.png 1089w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"612\" height=\"815\" data-id=\"32\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.39\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.39\u202fPM.png 612w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.39\u202fPM-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"612\" height=\"817\" data-id=\"35\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.26\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.26\u202fPM.png 612w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/tmchambe\/files\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-20-at-12.44.26\u202fPM-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1\/19\/2025 This was the first time i&#8217;d been back to my spot since the last assignment for NR1010 last semester.
