Description

The vulnerability assessment report describes the joint endeavor of the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst (Umass) to improve planning for the uncertain effects of climate change on the California Central Valley Water System (CVS) by integrating vulnerability-based analysis with traditional risk-based assessment methods. The report is intended to summarize research goals, analytical approach, workflow of modeling tools, evaluation of alternative experiemental designs, refined strategy for data visualization, and assessment of the vulnerability of the CVS to climate change.
