How Stream Networks Pulse with Rainfall

Stream networks are often mapped as fixed features, but they actually extend and retract as the landscape wets up and dries out. Researchers from University of California (UC) and ETH Zurich have been trying to figure out how much stream networks stretch and shrink in response to rainfall and drying. Their study is the first attempt to estimate this dynamic behaviour at a large scale across the continental United States.
