This $1,100,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program supports an innovative research collaboration between New Mexico State University (NMSU) and local stakeholders in northern New Mexico. The goal is to enhance the resilience of traditional acequia irrigation systems and associated socio-environmental systems to climate change and other emerging challenges. The project employs a convergence research approach that integrates...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $300,000 to the University of Southern California (USC) to investigate how new technologies for water resource extraction, such as membrane-based filtration and retrofittable fermenters, can address anticipated challenges of water scarcity and resource insecurity. The project aims to develop conceptual tools for understanding resource extraction in a...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) aims to improve understanding of the movement of water in urban landscapes and the role of irrigation in changing the urban water cycle. The $397,498 award, granted on February 1, 2025, supports field research across Illinois, Colorado, and Washington to measure changes in hydrology and plant physiology. The project will also use remote sensing data and microclimate models to evaluate how water...
This Project Grant award, totaling $499,681.45, was provided by the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805). The project aims to quantify and project the water budget across the Contiguous United States (CONUS) using a hierarchical modeling framework. Key objectives include: Quantifying water budget components by leveraging hydrological experiments, applying machine learning algorithms to inform soil properties, and employing...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $1,800,000 to the University of California, Davis will analyze the role of decentralized, multi-stakeholder investment partnerships in developing aquifer storage infrastructure.
