Climate Assessment of the Southwest Projects
-- Tools for Climate-Informed Flood
Mitigation: Integrating Flood Hydroclimatology and Paleodata into
Flood Warning and Floodplain Management Applications
-- Southwest TreeFlow Project :
The goal of
this project is to transfer the knowledge and record length that paleodata
provide into useful tools for hydrologic decision making

Improved Tools for Drought Planning and
Management --
Arizona Water
Institute Project
in collaboration with
Arizona State University's Decision Theater.
--
The main objective of the UA
portion of the project is to provide a framework for the use of tree-ring
data in creating drought scenarios for water managers.
