This project aims to raise awareness of the tradeoffs involved in managing the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta amid future droughts and rising sea levels. We will facilitate community engagement through public dialogue to collaboratively design future scenarios. These future scenarios will cover a wide range of water management options during drought periods that focus on salinity. Using advanced modeling techniques, we will visualize and analyze how these scenarios might unfold in the future, sharing our results throughout the process with project participants. This participatory scenario planning process will emphasize co-learning through the exchange of dialogue and perspectives, while including voices and knowledge from underrepresented groups and communities.
