Toward a Disaster Resilient California:
Managing Salinity in the California Delta
in a Changing Climate
The Delta supplies freshwater to two thirds of all Californians, a $50 billion agricultural industry, and critical habitat for many protected species. Increasing drought and sea level rise is making it more challenging for water managers to meet the freshwater needs of all who rely on the Delta.
The expert panel discusses issues related to managing salinity in the California delta and the impacts of climate change.
