  • Measuring impacts of California agri-environmental programs using field-scale satellite data

    Open AccessC Wong, Corisa A Wong et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    In the past decade, California has invested over $200 million in direct grants to growers to support the adoption of agricultural practices that save water and/or improve soil health while also reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Ex-post evaluation of agri-environmental outcomes of these grant programs, however, is limited. We use satellite data to monitor changes in field-level consumptive water use and greenness (i.e. normalized difference veget…

  • Field-scale mapping of California crop water productivity to inform water management in critically overdrafted groundwater basins

    Open AccessC Wong, Corisa A Wong et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    Crop water productivity (CWP) metrics can reveal how the dynamics of crop production and water use change across space and time. We use field-scale satellite inputs from 2016–2021 to estimate potential water savings for four crops (almonds, grapes, walnuts, and citrus—which collectively account for approximately one-third of California’s cropland area), within critically overdrafted groundwater sub-basins of California’s San Joaquin Valley. These…

  • Multi-scale planning model for robust urban drought response

    Open AccessMarta Zaniolo, Sarah Fletcher et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023

    Increasingly severe droughts are straining municipal water resources and jeopardizing urban water security, but uncertainty in their duration, frequency, and intensity challenges drought planning and response. We develop the Drought Resilient Interscale Portfolio Planning model (DRIPP) to generate optimal planning responses to urban drought. DRIPP is a generalizable multi-scale framework for optimizing dynamic planning strategies of long-term inf…

  • Quantifying uncertainty in groundwater depth from sparse well data in the California Central Valley

    Open AccessAmanda N Quay, Amanda S Hering et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Groundwater is a critical freshwater resource for irrigation in the California Central Valley, particularly in times of drought. Groundwater depth has dropped rapidly in California’s overdrafted basins, but irregular monitoring across space and time limits the accuracy of the groundwater depth projections in the Groundwater Sustainability Plans required by the California Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). This work constructs a Bayesi…

  • High-resolution model for estimating the economic and policy implications of agricultural soil salinization in California

    Open AccessPaul D Welle, Meagan S MauterARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    This work introduces a generalizable approach for estimating the field-scale agricultural yield losses due to soil salinization. When integrated with regional data on crop yields and prices, this model provides high-resolution estimates for revenue losses over large agricultural regions. These methods account for the uncertainty inherent in model inputs derived from satellites, experimental field data, and interpreted model results. We apply this…
