Drought Management in the Humid Southeast of U.S.

将开发一个模型，以更好地了解水资源是如何 在美国潮湿的东南部干旱条件下管理， 哪些是使用的应对机制，并确定哪些是 该地区未来可采用的替代水管理计划 干旱 1986年的干旱将作为案例研究。 这 事件将被审查和特点，缺乏成功的状态 将确定政府对干旱的规划和应对措施， 市政当局和农业部门的准备工作将 评估。 过去的区域水资源和干旱研究将是 在开发模型时考虑的因素以及现有的技术 关于综合或单独的地表水和地下水的资料 开发、管理和分配。 的责任 市政府、其他政府实体和私营部门， 应对干旱也将纳入该模型。 的 该项目将涉及地方，州和联邦水 机构、工业、农业和科学组织。 私家侦探是非常有资格执行该项目，因此，一个奖项是 推荐

A model will be developed to better understand how water resources are managed under drought conditions in the U.S. humid southeast, to examine which are the coping mechanisms used, and to determine what are the alternative water management schemes the region could adopt for the next droughts. The drought of 1986 will be taken as the case study. This event will be examined and characterized, the lack of success of state government planning for and response to drought will be determined, and the preparedness of municipalities and the agricultural sector will be evaluated. Past regional water resources and drought research will be considered in developing the model as well as the available technical information on comprehensive, or separate, surface and groundwater development, management and allocation. The responsibilities of municipalities, other governmental entities, and the private sector in responding to drought will be factored into the model as well. The project will be structured to involve local, state and federal water agencies, industries, agriculture and scientific organizations. The P.I. is highly qualified to carry out the project, thus, an award is recommended.
