The Management Options Database synthesizes and documents a comprehensive set of management practices implemented by the water managers on behalf of a collective (e.g., municipal water systems, irrigation districts) or as individuals (e.g., farmers) to adapt to drought conditions in the Rio Grande/Río Bravo basin. This database provides input to implement the policies in the agent-based module of the ENVISION RGB integrated model (i.e., the range of possible decisions the agents can make in the model) and explore new scenarios of water management. It was developed drawing on the ethnographic data collected by the ethnographic team (Friedman, Paladino). Regular meetings were facilitated by the modeling team (Koch,...

This dataset contains standardized in-situ soil moisture measurements from four sparse soil moisture monitoring networks in the South Central United States. This includes measurements in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana. The raw soil moisture measurements from a total of 220 stations over the four states were obtained from the Oklahoma Mesonet, West Texas Mesonet, USDA Soil Climate Analysis Network and NOAA Climate Reference Network. The measurements have been screened using the Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QAQC) process that is described in Quiring et al. (2016). The measurements were standardized to common depths using the methods described in Zhang et al. (2017) and they are provided at a daily...
This database provides crop coefficients and start and termination dates for more than 40 crops grown in the Rio Grande/Bravo basin. It was created drawing on a literature and dataset review covering resources from the State Agricultural Extension Services (Colorado State University, New Mexico State University, and Texas A&M University), the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture), AgriMet, and the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization). The database provides crop coefficients from plant emergence (or break dormancy in the case of perennials) to termination (harvest or dormancy), as well earliest planting date, killing frost temperature and cumulative growing degree days up to emergence, full cover and termination....

The Rio Grande/Río Bravo Socio-Environmental geodatabase synthesizes a broad array of existing geospatial data sets on the social and environmental characteristics of the basin. In addition to traditional biophysical and socio-political data sets (e.g., stream network, political jurisdictions boundaries, land use and land cover), the geodatabase provides the spatial domain for a typology of institutions making decisions about water and land. The produced geodatabase aggregates 145 GIS data layers classified on five main themes: (i) Water & Land Governance, (ii) Hydrology, (iii) Water Use & Hydraulic Infrastructures, (iv) Socio-Economics, and (v) Biophysical Environment. Data sets, identified as critical by the modeling...
