Description
The Central Sands conflict is one of the greatest environmental problems facing Wisconsin because of the diversity and number of stakeholders, scientific complexity, and political divisiveness. Irrigated land use conversion changes freshwater quantity and quality, regional climate, and agricultural productivity. The speaker will address research questions around this topic, such as how much water irrigated crops use and the effect of irrigated agriculture on climate.
