By Giovanni Cordova<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Terracing is a proven tool utilized by countries around the world to combat water scarcity and climate change. New Mexico\u2019s Water Authority showed that <strong>up to 97% of water captured by a terrace can effectively penetrate into Albuquerque\u2019s aquifer<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Rio Grande is fueled by the melting snow located in Colorado\u2019s Rocky Mountains, and as climate change continues to progress, our ability to reliably rely on this snowmelt will only continue to diminish. Farmers in New Mexico rely on the river flowing during the critical months of the growing season, and as snow begins to melt earlier in the year, the farmers have an increasingly limited supply of water to use for irrigation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To remedy this issue in the past, the state created water storage locations, such as Elephant Bute, to hold onto off-season water to save for the growing season, when farmers actually needed the water. As climate change continuous to shift the ratio of off-season water to growing season water into a less favorable situation, the state will have to create additional storage facilities to house the water for longer periods of time throughout the year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The issue with building additional lakes and damns are two fold. They are more ecologically destructive than storing water in an aquifer, and much less efficient. <strong>Lakes and dams store water with an evaporative loss of 10-15%, whereas aquifer storage has an evaporative loss of only 2%.<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With New Mexico\u2019s scarcest resource being water, having a reliable, high-efficiency, year-round storage solution is of utmost importance, and as such, New Mexico should prioritize the development of aquifer storage solutions over the more conventional surface storage methods.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<p><em>Created by:\u00a0<\/em>Giovanni Cordova<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6148,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false},"resource_category":[54],"resource_focus":[41,56,44],"class_list":["post-6123","learning_academy","type-learning_academy","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","resource_category-videos","resource_focus-dri","resource_focus-restoration","resource_focus-water-resources"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.8 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"[et_pb_section fb_built=\u201d1\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d width=\u201d100%\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_column type=\u201d4_4\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_video src=\u201dhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/queefVWFBUg\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d width=\u201d80%\u201d hover_enabled=\u201d0\u2033 global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d module_alignment=\u201dcenter\u201d sticky_enabled=\u201d0\u2033][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_column type=\u201d4_4\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u201d4.17.3\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d]What is Terracing?
