About
Presentation Title: Conjunctive Water Management – a new book by Richard Evans and Randall Hanson.Presentation abstract: The sustainability of water resources for water and food security largely depends on the successful adoption of conjunctive water management (CWM) strategies; it is also inherently tied to supply-and-demand management and the related external drivers of population, land development, and climate. Thus, water resource sustainability requires a holistic union of technical analysis, monitoring, and governance that is funded and maintained by all users of the resources. Accordingly, the collective management via CWM of surface water, groundwater, precipitation, and recycled, imported, and reused water will require changes in governance. In this presentation, Rick will present a summary of the key themes of the book and why conjunctive water management is an essential management approach in a climate-changing world.
