Economic-Engineering Optimization for California Water Management

Abstract: cesses along by suggesting promising solutions, eliminating unfounded concerns, and forc ing a more rigorous and systematic view of problems and opportunities for policy makers.As in the case of Hetch Hetchy, mathemati cal models suggest insights that allow inter ested parties, media, and government officials to reformulate a classical water resource con troversy and envision potential new solutions.

“…[8] Groundwater can offset surface water shortages during a drought; aquifers may be managed analogously to surface reservoirs for the storage and withdrawal of water [e.g., Draper et al, 2003]. However, groundwater was not included in the suite of ADI variables for three reasons: (1) Historic groundwater heights prior to human disturbances are typically unknown; (2) groundwater flow between distinct, heterogeneous aquifers across sizeable climate divisions is difficult to assess; and (3) groundwater response to drought may be asynchronous with other ADI variables; groundwater recharge/depletion commonly occurs at a timescale of weeks to years, which extends beyond the ADI time step of 1 month.…”

“…Wolfgang et al, 2009). As a result of inflow variability and uncertain predictability, the MSWV is expected to increase when compared to the MSWV obtained in the configuration of the present work (Draper et al, 2003;François, 2013). MSWV signatures obtained for an uncertain future are also potentially very informative with regard to how an operational strategy is organized, what its key features are and how it could change should the climate or demand change, or both together.…”
