A new model can measure water across vast distances in the Western U.S., meaning there could be more than originally thought.
There may be more drinking water waiting to be found in the Western U.S., a new computer model suggests.The new model uses artificial intelligence to get better estimations of water supply across large distances in the West. Details on the computer model and its findings were published in Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence by researchers at Washington State University.
Knowing how much water is available in snow is highly important in the West. Snowmelt feeds the region's rivers and reservoirs and is vital for the overall water supply.The region has also suffered from a prolonged megadrought since 2000, meaning water supplies have become scarce over time. Accurate measurements of water availability in snow are vital for policymakers and scientists planning the region's future.
