Storing and managing water for the environment is more efficient than mimicking natural flows
Nature CommunicationsDams and reservoirs are often needed to provide environmental water and maintain suitable water temperatures for downstream ecosystems. Here, we evaluate if water allocated to the environment, with storage to manage it, might allow environmental water to

Water supply as a constraint on transmission expansion planning in the Western interconnection
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 Consideration of water supply in transmission expansion planning (TEP) provides a valuable means of managing impacts of thermoelectric generation on limited water resources. Toward this opportunity, thermoelectric water intensity factors and water supply
