Since 2000, researchers from the Center for Research in Water Resources (CRWR) at The University of Texas at Austin have been engaged in a program of developing water resource tools (GIS-based ) for use in the Rio Grande - Rio Bravo basin shared between Mexico and the United States. This research has been funded by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the North American Development Bank (NADBank) and has been carried out in collaboration with colleagues at CNA, IMTA, Monterrey Tech, and others. Some of the results of this research are available at the links listed below. For more information, contact Dr. Daene McKinney at: Daene@AOL.com.
