Managing water resources has become increasingly important given given the increased demands on freshwater access for human consumption and natural processes. That’s where the Water Resources Research Act (WRRA) Program plays a major role, by providing a national platform for research, training and collaboration needed to manage our water resources.
Housed in the country’s top land-grant universities, Water Resources Research Institutes (WRRIs) are uniquely positioned to assist state and federal governments in advancing sustainable management of our water supply.
Each of the 50 states has a regional WRRI, and the Water and Environmental Research Center at UAF is a primary link between water experts at the university and the local water managers and stakeholders.
