USU water researchers launch 1st project in new water institute
LOGAN – Utah State University water researchers are creating a new hydrologic information system that will generate new insight about the nation’s water resources.
The idea is to help those who operate water monitoring sites to manage large volumes of data and make that data accessible to others.
USU associate professor Jeff Horsburgh said one fundamental of this work is that you can’t manage what you don’t measure.
“And we measure the water environment all the time,” Horsburgh said, “we just don’t share our observations and don’t have good standards for doing that. So what we’re building is a better way to do that.”
