- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Earth Sciences provides $294,998 to San Diego State University Research Foundation from September 2021 through August 2025. The funding supports the development of a framework to predict hydrologic processes at continental scales under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The Geosciences program aims to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences....
- This $290,925 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports fundamental research to investigate the impacts of managed aquifer recharge (MAR) on the water balance in California's intensively managed Central Valley region. The research employs a hybrid modeling approach that integrates hydrologic models with machine learning to gain detailed insights into water movement through the regional aquifer system and how MAR expansion will...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $500,000 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography for the "ADVANCED WATER RESILIENCE THROUGH COLLABORATIVE OPERATIONAL STRATEGIES IN THE SOUTHWEST INCUBATOR (AWRCOS INCUBATOR)" project. This 2-year effort focuses on improving water management in California's San Joaquin Valley by developing practical solutions that combine modeling, water systems engineering, machine learning, and forecasting tools. The project aims to integrate forecast-informed reservoir operations and managed aquifer recharge to strengthen the region's capacity to respond to drought, flooding, and groundwater declines, supporting continued agricultural productivity. The project emphasizes collaboration between researchers, local decision-makers, and community members to ensure the scientific tools meet real-world needs.
