Increasing and Improving Natural Resources

Our Methodologies

There is no "magic bullet" that will solve the complex problems of integrated water and coastal resource management (IWCRM). Multiple approaches are required to address the numerous cross-cutting areas. The ME&A Team is well placed to address these issues because our team members already have developed the expertise of proven approaches, methodologies, and tools.

The specific approaches the ME&A Team can choose include a combination of tried and true tools as well as state-of-the-art technologies. The ME&A Team, encompassing experience, vision and creativity, is poised to provide comprehensive solutions to water and coastal resource problems in every habitat throughout the world. This ranges from organizing villages and training them on the importance of sanitation and proper care for wells, to projects requiring the development of extensive sensor networks and computerized data systems to warn of flood or related events requiring cross-boundary cooperation

To overcome water resource problems, we are experienced in using effective tools and analytical models such as:

  • MODFLOW (groundwater)
  • GMS3.0 (groundwater
  • IRIS (hydraulic)
  • HEC-RAS (hydraulic)
  • BASINS3.0 (water quality)
  • SWMM
  • PHREEQC (groundwater geochemistry)
