Summary . . . . . . . . . . . . : The project addresses the issue of surface runoff modeling for urban and rural environments in New Mexico. It is not possible, given present forecasting methods, to issue flash flood warnings with sufficient lead time to avoid tragic and costly outcomes.The modeling system proposed is designed to alleviate both of the identified obstacles which prevent the generation of viable flash flood warnings.The modeling system will be a valuable tool for the National Weather Service and for the identification of flood prone areas.

Summary . . . . . . . . . . . . : The objectives of this project are to 1)experimentally demonstrate that hyperfiltration-induced precipitation of sodium chloride can occur, and 2) conduct bench-scale testing using this process to reduce reverse osmosis waste to a solid.This reverse osmosis waste reduction system will significantly cut waste disposal costs. The ultimate goal of this research is to improve the commercial viability of this method so that industrial partners can be attracted to make this process availableto users in New Mexico and the rest of the world. Experimental prrof that sodiumchloride can be precipated during hyperfiltration is necessary to attract future funding.

Summary . . . . . . . . . . . . : This project will assess how soil moisture anomalies affect land-atmosphere interactions in the semi-arid climate of New Mexico. If soil moisture impacts are substantial, then soil moisture-rainfall feedbacks may contribute to the vairability ofsummertime precipitation in New Mexico. A related effort will be to use the surface observations for this project to constrain a regional scale atmospheric model of the southwestern US summertime monsoon.The research completed in this seed project will be used to seek funding from NSF or NASA.
