Virginia Tech: New database reveals how Americans use water. “[Landon Marston and Yunus Naseri] have created the United States Water Withdrawals Database, the first nationwide resource to track who is drawing water from rivers, lakes, and underground aquifers, and in what amounts.”

Saving water can be cheaper than building it. One analysis found ag conservation at ~$69.89/acre-foot vs >$2,000 for new supply—so funders now want telemetry-backed proof, not just pipes. https://agtech.industryexaminer.com/pipes-to-proof-irrigation-funding-telemetry-efficiency/

The Federal Government has listed the Lower Murray River as a critically endangered ecosystem, in a move that has already threatened to spark a new political battle over its management. The designated area stretches nearly a thousand kilometres from western New South Wales, through Victoria and to the ocean in South Australia. It means the highly biodiverse region will now be granted stronger protections under environmental laws.

University of New Hampshire: Can Open Software Keep Our Water Supplies Safe?. “As discussions swirl over the nation’s water usage from AI data centers to agriculture and everything in between, researchers at UNH are working to ensure the data about our ever-changing aquatic resources are easier to access without a supercomputer or a Ph.D. in the water cycle.”

Innovative water management in China! 💧
Architects and designers are recycling ancient practices to turn rain into a valuable asset. From greywater toilet flushing to sophisticated rainwater harvesting systems, China is addressing water scarcity with traditional wisdom and modern engineering. A model for sustainable urban planning in a water-stressed world.

"California has no drought or abnormally dry conditions for the first time in 25 years":
https://www.sfchronicle.com/climate/article/california-drought-water-map-21284425.php
This is good news for Californians. When a drought gets bad enough, water gets rationed. Rationing made things worse. Instead, this news is a sign of progress. #WaterManagement

“The collected data is used by various federal, state, and local agencies, academic researchers and private consultants , and can help estimate the amount of water available for agriculture. Using this information, farmers can adapt and make decisions to better manage scarce water supplies more effectively.”
