Yavapai County Cooperative Extension (840 Rodeo Dr., Prescott)
On behalf of the University of Arizona Water Resources Research Center (WRRC) and the
Hydrologic Research Center (HRC) of San Diego, I invite you to participate in a workshop during
which we will seek your input regarding the transferability to other regions of the project,
Groundwater, Climate and Stakeholder Engagement (GCASE). This NOAA-funded project, which
carries the official title “Incorporating Climate Information and Stakeholder Engagement in
Groundwater Resources Planning and Management,” seeks to support groundwater management
decision making with an innovative modeling framework and stakeholder engagement methodology.
The WRRC serves as the lead for the stakeholder engagement, while Dr. Eylon Shamir of HRC leads
the modeling effort.
We are holding a series of workshops in April to investigate the transferability of these methodologies
within Arizona and hope you will attend one. The workshops will present results of the project case
study to date and explore the opportunities to utilize the project’s methodology and modeling
framework.
The project’s case study focused on the micro-basins in the Santa Cruz Active Management Area.
Using a groundwater model developed by Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR), the
project evaluates the aquifer recharge responses to precipitation and streamflow scenarios that are
likely to result from climate change. Please see the attached Project Summary for details.
The workshops will be held in cooperation with our co-hosts at the following dates and locations.
