CALVIN is an optimization model which suggests operations of California’s inter-tied water supply system which would maximize statewide economic benefits to agricultural and urban water users within
environmental flow requirements. Morning sessions will focus on technical aspects, with the afternoon sessions on results, policy, and management implications. Project descriptions can be
found at: http://cee.engr.ucdavis.edu/faculty/lund/CALVIN/
Admission is free to BDMF members, $30 for non-members, $5 for students (curiously, the cost of BDMF membership). Contact John Williams at jgwill@dcn.davis.ca.us for directions and membership information.
