SUMMARY:WSWC – NASA Western Water Applications Office (WWAO) Research to Operations (R2O) Workshop – POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:Due to COVID19 Travel Restrictions and Concerns\, the R2O Workshop April 22-23\, 2020 is CANCELLED until further notice.\n\n\nVENUE: National Academy of Sciences Beckman Center\n100 Academy\, Irvine\, California 92617 \nWORKSHOP OVERVIEW & OBJECTIVES:  \nThis workshop will build upon the insights identified and connections established in August 2019 during the first WSWC-WWAO workshop on research to operations (R2O) for Western water management. This year\, the workshop objectives aim to advance the priorities established in the last workshop and outlined in the summary workshop report. The 2020 workshop objectives are to: \n1. Strengthen agency partnerships and continue building an inter-agency community to facilitate R2O in water resource management by: \na. Including participants across Federal agencies that have research and/or operational involvement in water resource management\, including representatives from USGS\, NOAA\, NASA\, and USBR; \nb. Structuring the workshop to be interactive and dialogue-based; and \nc. Soliciting feedback and follow-up engagement from participants in the development of a workshop report that synthesizes the current shared challenges\, best practices\, and pathway forward for R2O in water resource management. \n 2. Develop WSWC’s WestFAST network to be a bridge to help transition new technologies and information products for water resources management to operational federal programs\, including\, but not limited to\, remote sensing-based measurement technologies and sub-seasonal to seasonal (S2S) weather forecasting by: \na. Engaging WestFAST members in the workshop Steering Committee; and \nb. Identifying technologies that meet water resource management needs and have high potential for R2O.  \n3. Develop a strategy for raising awareness and support within state and federal government for R2O through: \na. Defining what “success” looks like; \nb. Discussing and documenting a pathway and associated timeline for financial planning for R2O\, learning from projects that have been successful in R2O; \nc. Discussing and documenting a pathway and associated timeline for technical planning and coordination\, learning from successful projects; and \nd. Helping the research community understand the process and lead times necessary for successful transition of projects to operational federal agency programs. \nTo accomplish these objectives\, the workshop will bring together partners from federal and state agencies that have experience with technology transfer\, or that have programs that could be adopters of new technology and remotely sensed information products from NASA\, NOAA and USGS. Together we will identify best practices to transfer applied research to operational programs in western federal\, state\, and local water agencies and tribes. \nAGENDA:  \nREGISTRATION:\nRegistration is required for all meeting speakers and attendees.  \n__________________________________________________________________________________________________\nSuggested Accommodations: \nHotels offering Federal per diem rate ($181) and airport shuttle \nEmbassy Suites Irvine Orange County Airport\n2120 Main Street\, Irvine\, CA 92614\n949-553-8332 \nDoubleTree by Hilton – Orange County Airport\n7 Hutton Centre Drive\, Santa Ana\, CA 92707\n714-751-2400 \nDoubleTree by Hilton Santa Ana/Orange County Airport\n201 E.

SUMMARY:(2015) WSWC/CDWR Workshop on Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Precipitation Forecasting
DESCRIPTION:WSWC/CDWR Workshop on Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Precipitation Forecasting\n\nThe Western States Water Council and the California Department of Water Resources cosponsored a workshop on precipitation forecasting held May 27-29\, 2015 in San Diego\, California. \nREPORT: Workshop on Improving Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Precipitation Forecasting for Drought Preparedness \nWORKSHOP PURPOSE: The purpose of the workshop was to develop a Western vision for improving precipitation forecasting at timescales beyond the two-week weather forecast time domain\, loosely modeled after the Council’s vision for an observing network for Western extreme precipitation. Improved forecasts of precipitation at longer timescales can be used for many purposes\, such as interstate compact or water rights administration\, planning for local water agency supply deliveries\, or flood season preparedness. Forecasting needs vary not only with the purpose of a forecast\, but also with geographic location\, because the seasonal pattern of storm activity and large storm types varies with location. Improved skill in precipitation forecasting can be achieved by improving prediction of large storm types\, such as atmospheric rivers on the West Coast or the monsoon in the Southwest. \nA workshop summary report will be prepared\, with the intent of using the report to inform a dialog with NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center on taking advantage of prediction skill that may be available at a regional (Western) scale to improve the outlooks now issued at a national scale. The workshop’s ultimate goal is to advance the Council’s position calling on the federal government to improve precipitation forecasting. \n  \n  \n  \nAGENDA:  Improving Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Precipitation Forecasting \nPRESENTATIONS: \nMay 27\, 2015 \nOpening Remarks\, Jeanine Jones\, Interstate Resources Manager\, California Department of Water Resources (CDWR) \nNOAA’s California Drought Service Assessment\, Kevin Werner\, Western Regional Climate Services Director\, NOAA \nActivities of NOAA’s NWS Climate Prediction Center\, Jon Gottschalck\, Chief\, Operational Prediction Branch\, Climate Prediction Center (CPC) \nThe National Weather Service: Western Region Perspective\, Grant Cooper\, Director\, Western Region National Weather Service (NWS) \nForecasting Needs of NWS River Forecast Centers (RFCs) and Weather Forecast Offices (WFOs)\nNOAA’s NWS California-Nevada River Forecast Center\, Rob Hartman\, Hydrologist in Charge\nColorado Basin River Forecast Center\, John Lhotak\, Development and Operations Hydrologist\nSan Diego Weather Forecast Office\, Roger Pierce\, Meteorologist \nMay 28\, 2015 \nNOAA’s Research Program\nImproving Seasonal-to-Decadal Climate Understanding and Prediction\, V. “Ram” Ramaswamy\, Director \nRegional-Scale Research Projects\nBuilding an Atmospheric Rivers Catalog Using Big Data Approach\, Soroosh Sorooshian\, Distinguished Professor\, University of California (UC) at Irvine\nConditioning an Analog Years Database\, Amir Aghakouchak\, Assistant Professor\, UC Irvine\nProbabilistic Seasonal Predictin of Drought using Long-Term Precipitation and Temperature Data\, Ali Behrangi\, Scientist\, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) \nWestern State Climatologists Perspectives on Precipitation Forecasting\nSeasonal Forecasting – California Perspectives\, Mike Anderson\, State Climatologist\, CDWR\nOregon’s Drought and Seasonal Forecasting\, Kathie Dello\, Associate Director\, Climate Change Research Institute\, Oregon State University\nPerspectives in Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Forecasts in New Mexico\, David DuBois\, State Climatologist\, New Mexico State University \nNOAA’s Research Programs\nModeling\, Analysis\, Predictions\, and Projections Program\, Dan Barrie\, Program Manager\, NOAA’s Climate Program Office \nForecasting Needs and Water Agency Perspectives – Drought Preparedness and Response\nWill it Rain in Texas?\, Robert Mace\, Deputy Executive Administrator\, Texas Water Development Board\nDrought-Proofing Oklahoma: Forecasting Needs\, J.D.

SUMMARY:(2014) Remote Sensing Applications Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Remote Sensing Applications Workshop\n\nThe Council and NASA organized a workshop that was held on August 25-27\, 2014 at the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena\, California\, to exchange information about opportunities and challenges associated with use of remote sensing applications to support water management.  The workshop began at 1:00 on Monday the 25th and concluded at noon on Wednesday the 27th.  The event included a tour of JPL’s Earth Science Center\, Space Flight Operations Facility\, and Mars Yard.  The Mars Yard is a simulated Martian landscape used by researchers to test different robotic prototypes\, such as the Mars rovers.  (See this website (http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/interactives/photosynth/) for images of the Mars Yard.)  Cameras are permitted on the facility. \nThe workshop provided an opportunity for NASA to brief Council members on current and emerging observations and research activities that may have applicability to Western water\, and for Council members to discuss needs for research and continuity of observations with NASA.  Topics covered included: status of Landsat program continuity\, observing snowpack\, mapping land subsidence with radar imagery\, mapping fallowed agricultural lands\, and observing extreme precipitation/atmospheric river storms. \nThe Council advocated vigorously (and successfully) for inclusion of a thermal infrared sensor on Landsat 8\, launched in 2013\, so member states such as Idaho could continue using remotely sensed data for water rights administration.  Language in the 2014 Senate Appropriations Committee budget bill for NASA directs NASA to immediately start working on Landsat 9\, at a cost not to exceed $650 million. \nAGENDA:   JPL Meeting Agenda \nPRESENTATIONS:  (Permission has been received to share the following presentations.) \nNASA Earth and Applied Science – Brad Doorn\, Program Manager\, Water Resources Program\, NASA \nLandsat 8 Mission Status – Jeff Masek\, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center \nMapping Snow from the Air – Tom Painter\, Scientist\, NASA JPL \nMapping Fallowed Areas – Forrest Melton\, Senior Research Scientist\, NASA Ames Research Center \nMonitoring Water Infrastructure – Cathleen Jones\, NASA JPL \nMapping Land Subsidence using Satellites – Tom Farr\, NASA JPL \nMonitoring Subsidence in Arizona – Brian Conway\, Arizona Department of Water Resources \nAtmospheric Rivers and Sub-seasonal Forecasting – Duane Waliser\, Chief Scientist\, Earth Sciences & Technology\, NASA JPL \nGPS Inference of Soil Moisture – Kristine Larson\, Professor\, Aerospace Engineering Sciences\, University of Colorado \nOverview of Water Resource Applications – John Bolten\, Physical Scientist\, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center \nExploring Remote Sensing Options for Water Management in Montana – Tim Davis\, Administrator\, Water Resources Division\, MT Department of Natural Resources and Conservation \nUsing Remote Sensing for Irrigation Water Use – Mindy Conyers\, Program Specialist\, Texas Water Development Board \nSoil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) Mission – Dara Entekhabi\, Director\, Earth System Initiative\, Massachusetts Institute of Technology \nEvapotranspiration (ET) Advances in Airborne and Satellite Technology – Josh Fisher\, NASA JPL \nNASA/Indian Space Research Organization Synthetic Aperture Radar (NI-SAR) Mission – Paul Rosen\, NASA JPL
