Communities are facing multiple stressors to secure  quality, reliable water supply. For instance, California is facing a continual loss of snowpack that is being replaced by large intense rain events, which requires a new capture strategy to account for the dwindling snowpack. These new strategies will need to reach across physical and temporal scales, and require more predictive hydrological models and a better understanding of  underground processes that impact aquifers. Our scientists are actively working to better understand new strategies to recharge aquifers, wildfire impacts on water supplies, future storm intensities, and more.
