Abstract

The purpose of this activity is to provoke participants to discuss more adaptive Colorado River operations than existing operations that equalize reservoirs and expire in 2026. Participants use a Google Sheet to consume, save, and trade water in 6 basin accounts, protect Lake Powell and Lake Mead, sustain endangered, native fish of the Grand Canyon, and discuss. Follow the requirements and facilitation directions in the readme.md file.

CONTENTS:
1) readme.md - Requirements, facilitation directions, publications, file contents, and more.
2) Basin Accounts Tool - ColoradoRiverBasinAccounts.xlsx. Move into Google Sheets and follow Facilitation Directions (in readme.md). Or open ReadMe-Directions Worksheet.
3) Lets Start - ColoradoRiverBasinAccounts-LetsStart.pdf. Visual directions.
4) Model Guide - https://github.com/dzeke/ColoradoRiverCoding/blob/main/ModelMusings/Support/ModelGuide/ModelGuide-CombinedLakePowellLakeMead.md. Online.
5) Manuscript - 3-LessonsUseGoogleSheetsZoomToDiscussMoreAdaptiveColoradoRiverOperations.docx. Write up for publication as a journal article. Cite-able version at https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cee_facpub/3778/.
