Evaluating the Effectiveness of Collaborative Modeling Methodologies to Address Climate Change in Mountain Regions: A Case Study from The Sierra Nevada in the Western United States

This webinar describes a suite of collaborative modeling (CM) methods employed to assess and enhance the climate resiliency of snow-fed arid lands river systems in the Truckee-Carson River System in the western United States. In addition to reviewing the formative and summative evaluation results, lessons learned from this case study lend additional insight into the perks and pitfalls inherent to interdisciplinary knowledge co-production and emphasize the importance of evaluation to identify and empirically test best practices involving the selection and application of collaborative modeling methods.
