This activity will result in:
-
A white paper listing: (a) Reclamation situations where groundwater interactions with surface water have been or are being assessed, (b) challenges with assessing such interactions under a changing climate, and (c) modeling options for assessing such interactions in a changing climate (highlighting applications of these various model options as conducted by Reclamation or other entities).
-
Establishment of a Groundwater Hydrology Work Group comprised of academics, Water Research Institutes, and Federal agencies to translate white paper issues into a technology development strategy
-
Model intercomparison to explore management-hydrology model integration with simple/complex hydrology models
