February 17, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

water availability scenarios

The future of water in our shared international basins depends on data, science, and cross-border collaboration. Join us for a new Coffee Break session of the Permanent Forum of Binational Waters on February 17, 2023, from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. (CT), where we’ll explore current and projected water availability scenarios in US-Mexico transboundary basins.

Our binational water systems are under increasing pressure due to climate change, population growth, and competing demands. This talk will address what the latest science tells us about future water availability—and how we can prepare for it.

Speakers:

  • Alfredo Granados, Professor, UACJ

  • Jorge Ramírez, Professor, UABC

  • Carmen Julia, Professor, UACH

  • David Rheinheimer, Water Resources Engineer, Colorado River Board of California

Moderators:

  • Rosario Sánchez, Senior Research Scientist, TWRI

  • Samuel Sandoval, Professor, UC Davis

From the Río Bravo/Grande to the Colorado River and beyond, this discussion will highlight regional scenarios and modeling efforts, challenges in forecasting, and the importance of coordinated data collection and analysis.

Access the session for free via Zoom

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from experts, learn about collaborative efforts, and get a clearer picture of what lies ahead for water in our shared basins.
