South Florida Water Management District has named its first District Resiliency Officer, Carolina Maran, Ph.D., P.E.

The 21st FloridaWCA Workshop was hosted by the Orlando Utilities Commission (Gardenia Ave. Office) on February 7, 2020.

“Building Resilience to a Changing Climate: A Technical Training in Water Utility Decision Support” focused on important dimensions of building the resilience of water sector utilities, including creating a common vocabulary and understanding of climate science and practices so practitioners and consultants are able to effectively work together.

The project, “Integrating NASA Earth Systems Data into Decision-Making Tools of Member Utilities of the Florida Water and Climate Alliance” will link NASA Earth Science products with real-time monitoring and forecasting products that will deliver information to local water utilities at spatial and temporal scales relevant to them.

Wyatt Jordan, a recent graduate of FSU, attended a FloridaWCA workshop in April 2018 while an undergraduate. Since then, he has helped share the stories of Dr. Vasu Misra, and Kevin Morris with a broader audience through a Podcast.
