In lieu of a full-day, in-person event, the Nebraska Water Center is hosting a 2020 Mini-Conference.
- Date: August 3, 2020
- Time: 2-4 p.m. CDT
There will be two virtual sessions on the hydrogeology and sociology of water resources in western Nebraska.
Together with partners at the UNL Panhandle Research and Extension Center, the first session features Nebraska researchers Steve Sibray and Troy Gilmore who will present western Nebraska’s unique hydrogeology. The second session features the Water for Agriculture Project, a USDA-NIFA-funded effort focused on stakeholder engagement for addressing critical issues at the nexus of water and agriculture. Presenters will include Nebraska team members Mark Burbach and Jessica Groskopf, and collaborators Wes Eaton, Penn State, and Jason Farnsworth, Platte River Recovery & Implementation Program.
