This $893,000 Project Grant was awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) on September 17, 2024. The grant recipient, the Yolo Subbasin Groundwater Agency (YSGA), will use the funding to improve surface water-groundwater modeling, develop projects and demand management strategies to support groundwater sustainability, create a seasonal forecasting platform, and enhance data management and public data access. The...
This federal Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) provides $765,109 to Washington State University (WSU) to enhance decision-support capabilities for groundwater management in the Columbia Plateau region. The project aims to convert an existing regional groundwater flow model from an annual to a monthly timestep, while improving irrigation demand estimates and incorporating climate scenarios....
This Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) provides $393,724 to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology to conduct a series of surveys in the San Acacia reach of the Middle Rio Grande. The objective is to measure the flux of drainage groundwater entering the surface-water system, partition the groundwater discharge into its different sources, and provide aquifer flux-boundary...
The U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $377,502 Project Grant under its Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) to develop the next generation of three water and data management tools to improve access to water resources data for the Roswell Artesian Basin. The project, conducted in partnership with the Pecos Valley Artesian Conservancy District, aims to enhance data integration, the Next...
This Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Water Resources Research Act (WRRA) Program (CFDA 15.805) provides $620,000 in funding to Texas A&M AgriLife Research to evaluate the vulnerability of urban, agricultural, and ecological sectors in the Southern Ogallala Aquifer (SOA) region to drought and wildfires. The project aims to estimate the economic losses by sector and county, simulate crop yields and irrigation water usage under various management strategies,...
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $300,000 Project Grant under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) to the Lost Pines Groundwater Conservation District (GCD) in Texas. The purpose of the grant is to develop a local-scale groundwater availability and flow model to improve the GCD's ability to accurately predict the impacts of groundwater production, both within the district and regionally, on local groundwater levels and water quality. The model will enable the GCD and its...
This Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes (CFDA 15.805) program provides $689,092 to Oklahoma State University (OSU) from January 30, 2025 through January 29, 2028. The project aims to develop an integrative approach combining satellite remote sensing and environmental DNA (eDNA) for early detection and management of aquatic invasive plant species in the Upper Mississippi River Basin. Key deliverables include...
This $382,843.68 Project Grant was awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation through the CFDA 15.557 Applied Science Grants program. The grant will enable Utah State University, in partnership with multiple Utah state agencies, to enhance an existing platform from a 2-year timescale to multi-year-to-decadal timescale forecasting tools for the Colorado River water supply. The project aims to provide a future perspective on persistent drought threats and support...
This Project Grant award of $218,400.00, provided by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557), supports a study to determine the quality, quantity, and recharge rate of the groundwater in the Owl Creek drainage on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. The study will conduct geophysical examinations, water chemical characterization, and recharge area studies to provide data critical for planning a sustainable water system in...
This $300,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to enhance the resilience of groundwater resources in major U.S. agricultural regions through a participatory planning approach. The project team at Southern Illinois University, with sub-awards to Iowa State University and the University of Nebraska, will develop an AI-based modeling system to empower farming communities in addressing groundwater depletion and...
