SUMMARY:CSEI Seminar Series 2022 – Modeling human and hydrologic systems 
 for water sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Title – Modeling human and hydrologic systems for water susta
 inability\nContent: Climate change impacts have reduced Rio Grande river w
 ater availability in the border region between the US and Mexico\, causing
  increased extraction of groundwater for urban and agricultural use. Model
 ing hydrology alone fails to capture the key drivers of water scarcity and
  is not sufficient for scenario based planning for water sustainability. 
  This talk outlines our group’s approaches to characterize and model cou
 pled hydrologic and human systems to identify clues to resilient water fut
 ures.\nBio – Alexander “Sam” G. Fernald has served as Director of th
 e New Mexico Water Resources Research Institute (NM WRRI) since January 20
 11. As director\, he leads the institute in its mission to develop and dis
 seminate knowledge that will assist the state\, region\, and nation in sol
 ving water resources problems. The NM WRRI\, one of 54 water institutes i
 n the nation\, encourages university faculty statewide to pursue critical 
 areas of water resources research while providing training opportunities f
 or students\, and transfers research findings to the academic community\, 
 water managers and the public. Professor Fernald also is a Professor of Wa
 tershed Management at New Mexico State University. Dr. Fernald’s earned
  degrees include a 1987 B.A. in international relations from Stanford Univ
 ersity\, an M.E.M. in 1993 in water and air resources from Duke University
 \, and a Ph.D. in watershed science from Colorado State University in 1997
 . He has published extensively with over 60 peer reviewed papers in resear
 ch areas including: coupled human and hydrologic systems\; water quality h
 ydrology\; land use effects on infiltration\, runoff\, sediment yield\, an
 d nonpoint source pollution\; and effects of surface water/groundwater exc
 hange on water availability and water quality. Dr. Fernald received Fulbri
 ght Scholarships to Queen Mary University of London in 2021\, Patagonian N
 ational University\, Trelew\, Argentina in 2008\, and the University of Co
 ncepcion\, Concepcion\, Chile in 2000.
