Community
CUAHSI’s multidisciplinary community consists of students, educators, researchers, volunteer scientists, outreach coordinators, environmental and watershed organizations, and corporate entities. Our goal is for all who are involved in water science, water-resources management or water-resources protection and enhancement to find a place in the CUAHSI community.
We facilitate the sharing of resources, information, and expertise across a diverse range of disciplines to collaboratively solve problems from different perspectives. Resources and programs of interest relevant to the broader water science community are compiled here. Please contact us at email hidden; JavaScript is required if you have a resource that you would like to make available to the community or if you are interested in partnering on a project. Please fill out this form if you have a job you'd like posted on the CUAHSI job board.
"CUAHSI plays a one-of-a-kind and vital role connecting and engaging the academic community in the hydrological sciences. CUAHSI has succeeded in providing academic researchers, faculty, and graduate students with a consistent and well-resourced hub for academic exchange, data and modeling tools, conferences, training, and cross-disciplinary, trans-institutional programming. CUAHSI's leadership has also done a great job expanding and formalizing its services yet staying focused on its core mission and audience. As a user of CUAHSI services and leader of CUAHSI-sponsored training workshops, I am consistently impressed by the excellence of CUAHSI staff in all they do. I hope that CUAHSI continues to succeed in its fundraising efforts and remains a thriving organization that so many of us in the hydrological sciences lean-on and benefit from." - Scott H. Ensign, Ph.D., Assistant Director, Vice President, Research Scientist, Stroud Water Research Center
Community Awards
CUAHSI Community Awards
CUAHSI offers two community awards recognizing contributions to hydrologic science education and to the CUAHSI organization. Both awards are open to nominees at any career stage, and self-nominations are encouraged. Nominations are evaluated on demonstrated impact, contribution to the water science community, and engagement with CUAHSI resources and programs.
CUAHSI Water Science Exchange
Join us for the inaugural CUAHSI Water Science Exchange, happening this fall!
The theme, Water in Working Landscapes, highlights water-related work and challenges specific to the Midwest, alongside broader programming on multi-agency water data, cloud computing, and specialized methods in water science.

CUAHSI Skills Certificate Pilot - Reproducible Workflows with Open Water Data: NASA, NOAA, USGS River Data Access
Water science researchers rely on datasets from federal agencies, but few have been trained in how to access this data using recommended and sustainable patterns. This course builds data literacy skills for programmatically accessing datasets from NASA, NOAA, and USGS, and understanding the strengths of each in water research applications. This pilot course is Python-based and has been developed with the recommendations of the data providers themselves.

Water Data Forum: Durable Skills for the Water Workforce in the Age of AI
In this free webinar, researchers, managers, and workforce development experts will examine which analytical and modeling skills remain durable, and why demand is growing for people who can check what AI produces, direct the work of AI alongside the work of people, and explain results to those who act on them. Panelists will also discuss what this means for hiring, for people already in water jobs, and for the pipeline of water sector talent.
