Call for Abstracts

The Rio Grande and its interconnected groundwater sustain life and the economy of a large arid region encompassing three States and part of Mexico. Record low flows and storage in reservoirs highlight groundwater in this region as both a hedge against drought and important resource to manage effectively. The purpose of this conference is to bring together groundwater and watershed scientists, water managers, and others with an interest in the water resources of this region to discuss what is known about the quantity, quality, and interconnections of the groundwater and surface-water resources.

The conference seeks abstracts in the following topic area:

• Water supply/shortage
