The Mortenson Center's cutting-edge research combined with stakeholder engagement is helping legislators to better understand local water systems' current and future climate vulnerabilities. We have created emerging technologies including developing the first-ever demonstration of carbon credits earned from green infrastructure replacing gray infrastructure for water treatment.

To aid in Colorado Water Management the Mortenson Center is:

  • Monitoring gaps in Colorado water management.
  • Examining the challenges for Colorado water managers across basins & sectors.
  • Researching perceptions of technology use and barriers to adoption across Colorado.
  • Exploring the feasibility of green infrastructure to address water quality concerns in Colorado鈥檚 rivers and reservoirs.听
