12^th DRAC Presentation on May 19^th 2023

Abstract:    

This presentation will draw upon the history of water on earth and man鈥檚 interaction with it. Examples to be discussed include; Florida, Houston, Lake Tulare CA, and the Colorado River Basin. Each one of these case studies will be looked at for fundamental patterns, issues with past planning, and how an ecologist could have predicted our current climate. From different perspectives we explore new ways to think about emergency situations and how perspective can lead us to effective but surprising solutions. In unlocking a new perspective on any issue, it is possible to find a new way to measure or calculate results. It can also allude to caches of data that can better inform management decisions.
