2024 Spring Speaker Series: Applied Water Research in NYS
Every year, the New York State Water Resources Institute (NYSWRI) at Cornell supports research that addresses critical water resource issues in New York State and the nation. The seminar series focuses on ways in which robust science can support and influence on-ground water management and policy outcomes, and center collaborative and interdisciplinary work between academics, water resource scientists, educators, managers, and policymakers.

WRI staff working with the Hudson River Estuary Program continue to educate a new generation of river stewards networking with river education providers ranging from community-based non-profit groups to classroom teachers and government agencies. A range of programs and resources are available to facilitate place-based education about the river, promoting knowledge of the ecosystem, mastery of skills required by learning standards, and a boost on the ladder of stewardship.

See the WRI tools and training resources including 30-day streamflow forecast, a community flood reporting tool, MyCoast, and culvert right sizing resources.
