More than 100 updates to SEI's water modelling tool will bring faster and more precise results for its 40 000 users.
Water for Ecosystems and Livelihoods
The water program drives innovation in water management by developing, using, and transferring planning tools and participatory processes that promote holistic, transparent and robust decision-making.
We work on national, regional and local scales, mapping out watersheds and future conditions using SEI’s Water Evaluation And Planning System (WEAP). WEAP enables policy-makers and stakeholders to consider how management plans will affect cities, industries and farms, as well as long-neglected interests such as wildlife habitat and vulnerable communities.
Our researchers are located in both Davis, California and Somerville, Massachusetts.
SEI researchers are working on a new framework to ensure water models provide decision-makers with the tools to address poverty and inequality.
SEI researchers work throughout California to model complex water systems and explore sustainable management options.
SEI researchers build water models and work with stakeholders throughout Africa to explore management strategies for an uncertain climate future.
This study finds that the most resilient energy plan for the Eastern African Power Pool is one that assumes a slightly wetter climate than historical trends.
Under a climate change adaptation approach, 25 municipalities in Cochabamba benefit from the update of the Basin Master Plan presented by SEI.
