New RiverWare Release 7.5 Highlights of this new release include: A new DMI connection to Excel where Excel doesn't open in the background. This new behavior is the default, but the old connection is still available. A new browser based Documentation system. In the Model Comparison Tool, Links and DMI...

We congratulate Sumi Thapa on earning her Masters degree in Civil Engineering, in the Hydrology, Water Resources, and Environmental Fluid Mechanics program here at CU Boulder this May, 2019.

Recently a pertinent journal article “Quantifying and Evaluating the Impacts of Cooperation in Transboundary River Basins on the Water-Energy-Food Nexus: The Blue Nile Basin, was published by the Science of the Total Environment. The Blue Nile flows from Lake Tana in Ethipoia to where it crosses the border into Sudan...
