Last week, DE and California State University, Chico Irrigation Training Facility ( CSUC ITF) hosted a Spring 2026 Techathon—a full‑day event centered on the theme "Making the Unseen Seen - Water Budgets."
After an opening session on California's Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, participants rotated through breakout stations covering general tools, telemetry, groundwater extractions and pressurized flows, ET and precipitation, groundwater‑storage change, stream–aquifer interactions, and applied surface water.
We wrapped up the day with a session focused on spatial hydrology, data science, and modeling—bringing all the concepts together in a practical, integrated way.
Thank you to the CSUC ITF for your continued partnership and for providing the facilities that made this such an enriching and collaborative event!
