Open Rivers

From the Staff of Open Rivers:

On behalf of the editorial board and staff of Open Rivers, I invite you to take a look at Issue 2: Imagining Water, hot off the virtual presses!

Find the journal at http://openrivers.umn.edu

We're very proud of this issue, and think you'll find the content thought-provoking.  We have features on water and the landscape of race by Richard M. Mizelle, Jr, a piece by Christopher Morris on the varying and perhaps changeable meanings of terms such as "disruption" and "resilience," and a reflection from Patrick Hamilton on how his early familiarity with water has fueled his work on climate change.

The issue also includes our usual columns on primary sources, teaching and practice, reviews, and more.  Look especially for ecohydrologist Kate Brauman's discussion of what large data set can and can't tell us and for Kirk MacKinnon Morrow's reflections on the teaching opportunities offered through tours of Dakota sacred sites.

Please note, all the content in this issue is available for download as PDFs, both the issue in full as well as individual articles.  We hope this facilitates using the material for teaching and in wider distribution.

As always, we welcome your comments and queries.  Please do feel free to circulate to friends and colleagues who are committed to examining and working with the intersections of rivers, water, equity and landscape.  We are always open to new writers and ideas for stories, so do stay in touch!
