New WWAO Report – From Research to Operations
In collaboration with the Western States Water Council, WWAO has released a report on transitioning water science from research to decision maker. The findings outline best practices as well as the challenges that must be overcome.
Tracking Water For The Navajo
A new web tool designed by WWAO scientists could help the Navajo Nation anticipate and respond to drought. The latest maps give insight into the moderate to severe drought conditions affecting much of the area.
Seeking Relief From Drought, Navajo Turn to NASA
On the Navajo Nation, access to drinking water is limited. Over 40 percent of homes lack running water. The community is hit by frequent, pervasive drought. WWAO is developing a new drought tool that, with the help of satellite data, will enable Navajo water managers to hone in on drought severity and better manage the water they have.
