CUAHSI operates an internet based system for storing and sharing water data using CUAHSI-HIS technology. CUAHSI-HIS is based on a service oriented architecture and has catalogued more than 90 water data sources for search, discovery and data access. CUAHSI provides support for researchers to archive and publish their research data within the system.

CUAHSI instrumentation services improve access to, awareness of, and use of advanced instrumentation by the water science community. Services include supporting instrumentation sharing and access through a virtual hydrologic measurement facility, hosting hands on training and instrumentation development workshops, and partnering with USGS to offer instrumentation loan and lab sample services to our member universities.

CUAHSI has spearheaded initiatives and is collaborating on research projects to support community hydrologic modeling, with the ultimate goal to establish a community modeling program that enables comprehensive simulation of water anywhere. Such an effort would include connections to and advances in global climate models, biogeochemistry, and efforts of other disciplines that require an understanding of water patterns and processes in the environment. .

In addition to its currently funded programs, CUAHSI continues to engage the community in exploring and prioritizing new services for the water science community. CUAHSI serves as a conduit between the water science community and NSF, to document and transmit community needs and consensus, and to provide methods to incubate the conceptualization and development of new initiatives and services. If you are interested in advancing new ideas for water science, consider serving on a Standing Committee.
