The US Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a significant grant opportunity for researchers to investigate how groundwater recharge in the Western United States might respond to potential climatic shifts over the next century. This initiative seeks to synthesize the current understanding of recharge across the entire West, employing a wide array of measurements and estimates. A primary objective is to forecast future groundwater dynamics under various climate change scenarios. Furthermore, the research will identify critical missing data and knowledge gaps that currently prevent robust forecasting of groundwater recharge, ultimately enhancing our understanding of crucial water resources.
