==About==

The '''Colorado River Science Wiki''' is a web-based clearinghouse for scientific and technical information relevant to the Colorado River Basin and the management of its water resources and related natural resources. This clearinghouse is intended to be useful to managers and other decision-makers, to researchers, to the media, and to the broader public. Its objectives are to:

*Share recent and ongoing Colorado River research efforts and findings
*Provide up-to-date synthesis of the science relevant to management
*Allow one-stop access to key technical datasets and data tools
*Help inform discussions about the next [https://www.usbr.gov/ColoradoRiverBasin/ Interim Guidelines]
*Engage the greater Colorado River community in a joint information-gathering effort

The Wiki is still in the early stages of development and will evolve and expand. We welcome your feedback; please use this [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfVXdC1lZde88uk5Nld1qnDDtzXQr1XaDIjFo1KlQ1shCY20A/viewform form] to send us suggestions, or reach us at the contact information below.

==Outline==

There are six main sections in the Wiki. Each section can be accessed via the navigation panel on the left side of the page.

'''''[[Science and applications]]'''''

Provides up-to-date information across dozens of areas of management-relevant science. Each page has at least the following:
*Summary description of the topic
*The topic's relevance to Colorado River water management
*Annotated links to datasets, tools, and other information and science synthesis on that topic

'''''[[Data and tools]]'''''

Collates all of the annotated links to the datasets and tools from Section 1, to make them available in one place.

'''''[[New research]]'''''

Lists, by year and by subject, research studies and relevant reports published since 2020.

'''''[[Water law and policy]]'''''

Describes the legal and policy context in which the science and applications to inform water management are implemented.

'''''[[Who's who]]'''''

Identifies key players in the science-to-applications (aka research-to-operations, or R2O) chain in the basin, and provides links to homepages and other resources.

'''''[[About the river]]'''''

Provides a very brief introduction to the Colorado River and the challenges that have emerged in the 21st century.
