Book Colorado River Basin Water Management

Download or read book Colorado River Basin Water Management written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-06-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies of past climate and streamflow conditions have broadened understanding of long-term water availability in the Colorado River, revealing many periods when streamflow was lower than at any time in the past 100 years of recorded flows. That information, along with two important trends-a rapid increase in urban populations in the West and significant climate warming in the region-will require that water managers prepare for possible reductions in water supplies that cannot be fully averted through traditional means. Colorado River Basin Water Management assesses existing scientific information, including temperature and streamflow records, tree-ring based reconstructions, and climate model projections, and how it relates to Colorado River water supplies and demands, water management, and drought preparedness. The book concludes that successful adjustments to new conditions will entail strong and sustained cooperation among the seven Colorado River basin states and recommends conducting a comprehensive basinwide study of urban water practices that can be used to help improve planning for future droughts and water shortages.

Download or read book Water Transfers in the West written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American West faces many challenges, but none is more important than the challenge of managing its water. This book examines the role that water transfers can play in allocating the region's scarce water resources. It focuses on the variety of third parties, including Native Americans, Hispanic communities, rural communities, and the environment, that can sometimes be harmed when water is moved. The committee presents recommendations to guide states, tribes, and federal agencies toward better regulation. Seven in-depth case studies are presented: Nevada's Carson-Truckee basin, the Colorado Front Range, northern New Mexico, Washington's Yakima River basin, central Arizona, and the Central and Imperial valleys in California. Water Transfers in the West presents background and current information on factors that have encouraged water transfers, typical types of transfers, and their potential negative effects. The book highlights the benefits that water transfers can bring but notes the need for more third-party representation in the processes used to evaluate planned transfers.

Book Water Management Models

Download or read book Water Management Models written by Ralph Allen Wurbs and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 1995 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer models play important roles in environmental and water resources planning and management. However, the number and complexity of available software packages -- both public domain and proprietary -- can be overwhelming for anyone attempting to sort through the maze of models and to understand which ones might be useful for a particular application. This reference critically evaluates the extremely wide range of water management modelling software to help water managers, engineers, and scientists identify, select, and acquire the optimal software program for their particular modeling needs. Covers general-purpose software packages that deal with water management models. Considers packages that focus on specific models for demand forecasting and balancing supply with demand; water distribution systems; ground water; watershed runoff; stream hydraulics; river and reservoir water quality; reservoir/river system operation. Features a Model Inventory Appendix covering in depth the details of 37 generalized water management models with a proven record of successful application. For engineers, scientists, planners, and managers involved with waste and wastewater management, drainage and stormwater management, municipal and industrial water districts, irrigation and flood control districts.
