National Park Water Supply Vulnerability Assessment

under assessment

Colorado State University is partnering with the U.S. National Park Service to assess and protect water supplies in national parks across the continental U.S. The project involves compiling water supply data into a national database, evaluating vulnerability to climate change and visitation pressures, and recommending adaptation strategies such as conservation, infrastructure repair, and increased storage. The project aims to guide resource management decisions and infrastructure investments to secure water resources for future needs.
