Southwest Hydrology’s latest issue features Urban Water Management. As always, you can download the 
material free of charge, by section or the entire issue.
Here are the cover and T of C.
Here are the feature articles:
Possible Tradeoffs from Urbanization on Groundwater Recharge and Water Quality
Differential Impacts of Flash Flooding Across the Paso del Norte
Drywells: One County’s Novel Approach to Stormwater Management and Disposal
Pervious Pavement – Fact or Fiction?
Principles for Managing the Southwest’s Urban Water Environments
And don’t forget the departments: On the Ground; Government and Hydrofacts; R&D; The Water Page; In Print & Online ; Business Directory; Calendar.
Unfortunately, not all the news is good. Publisher Betsy Woodhouse announced that primarily because of a lack of funding, this will be the last issue unless more support is obtained. In any case, this is Betsy’s last issue as she will take a position at the Institute of the Environment.
Betsy deserves our heartfelt thanks for producing such an important resource. She started it eight years ago, and obtained support form the University of Arizona’s NSF-funded SAHRA program after a few years. But she’s been the person who started it and made it go.
Gary Woodard, SAHRA’s Associate Director for Knowledge Transfer, has promised to keep us apprised of any developments. If you have any suggestions or comments, he invites you to email him (gwoodard@sahra.arizona.edu) or call him at 520-626-5399.
We all owe you a huge debt, Betsy. Although I am in the Pacific Northwest, I found that many of the articles transcended the Southwest USA. Besides, I’m an unrepentant desert rat who’s spent most of my adult life in Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico, and reading SWH reconnected me to that part of the USA and its incredible hydrology.
Let me also include thanks to Howard Grahn, who was there from the beginning and served most recently as Technical Editor.
Thank you, and best of luck to you, Betsy.
