Abstract
The purpose of this activity is to provoke collaborators to discuss more adaptive Colorado River operations than existing operations that equalize reservoirs and expire in 2026. Collaborators use web spreadsheets (Google Sheets) during a video conference session. In a model session, up to 6 collaborators immerse in water user roles. Then in each time step, collaborators consume, conserve, and trade water in response to their available water, others choices, and real-time discussion of choices. Collaborators also protect critical levels in Lake Powell and Lake Mead and sustain endangered, native fish of the Grand Canyon. Follow the requirements and start directions in the readme.md file.
