An annual report by @UCDavisTahoe shows Lake Tahoe’s clarity is holding steady - but not improving. Researchers are working to find out if algae, wildfire ash or other particles are having an impact.

Love soars at #UCDavis! ❤️ Peregrine falcons have been spotted on our iconic water tower, possibly attempting to nest, which could be a first on campus! See how these powerful raptors, once endangered, are making themselves right at home.
