In this talk, we will discuss the progress made in understanding and modeling the basin scale water balance in the upper Rio Grande through the NSF SAHRA Center by investigators from Arizona and New Mexico. A major goal of the SAHRA program is to better understand the factors leading to water sustainability in our region in the face of growing concerns about climate, population and land-use change. Particular attention will be placed in the talk on recent investigations of the hydrologic characteristics of the Valles Caldera National Preserve in the Jemez Mountains.
