The Delta Lead Scientist is responsible for “leading, overseeing, and guiding” the state and federally funded #DeltaScience Program. cah2oresearch.com/2023/07/19/delta-lead-sc...
The Delta Independent Science Board has oversight of adaptive management in the Delta, but @CAWaterBoards did not ask the DISB to review the Draft Supplemental Scientific Basis Report in Support of the Voluntary Agreements, & public comment period closes on Feb 8. #DeltaScience
Delta Lead Scientist @Waterslashcycle says that the #DeltaScience Program is looking at these documents on Grand Challenges for the #SacDelta in thinking about updating the Science Plan.
Delta Independent Science Board Chair Steve Brandt just led the Board in a deep and profoundly important discussion of the relationship of Board reviews to the #Deltascience program. @JayLund113 read from section 85280 of the Delta Reform Act as the Board discussed their role.
From the #DeltaScience Program's review of the Delta Independent Science Board. According to the @DeltaCouncil staff, "Modern Western science" has espoused a value-free ideal, in which "science is not influenced by social, moral, or political values." #climatechange #DontLookUp
How do you create accountability in the #SacDelta? The Delta Independent Science Board is important, as are Delta Plan consistency requirements, CEQA, regulatory processes, and courts. #deltagovbrownbag #Deltascience #peerreview
And a belated shout out to the amazing Delta lead scientist, @waterslashcycle, and to the female scientists on the Delta Independent Science Board: Virginia Dale, @tanyaheikkila, Dianne McKnight, Lisa Wainger. Also to past Delta ISB chair @ElizabethCanuel. Women in #Deltascience.
@CA_DWR’s new runoff forecasting method is untested and has not been provided for independent experts to examine. Nor to my knowledge has there been independent #peerreview… This is a #Don’tLookUp moment for the Delta. #CAwater #Deltascience...
“It is therefore incumbent on experts in any discipline that deals with the future of the biosphere and human well-being to eschew reticence, avoid sugar-coating the overwhelming challenges ahead and ‘tell it like it is.’” #COP26 #Deltascience #CAwater...
@GavinNewsom The climate is changing in ways we don't completely understand. Please sign #SB821 and restore full funding for the critically important work of the nationally and internationally prominent scientists on the Delta Independent Science Board. #CAwater #Deltascience
The discussion lead by @JayLund113 of the Delta ISB's water reliability review at #CWEMF is deep and fascinating. These discussions inspired by the Delta ISB's reviews are profoundly important for adaptation to climate change. #Deltascience
@GavinNewsom We're in a megadrought. Please sign #SB821 and restore full funding for the critically important work of the Delta Independent Science Board. @DeltaCouncil #CAwater #CAdrought #Deltascience cah2oresearch.com/2021/03/30/delta-indepen...

Our 2012 comments to @CA_DWR on #CAwater supply modeling and #CAdrought risk: "This can seriously underestimate impacts of climate change on both river flows and water supply." #Deltascience #DeltaISB

@CaliforniaDFW Carl Wilcox's presentation to the Delta Independent Science Board. Slide on most important science issues in coming years. #SacDelta #DeltaScience
Thank you @CA_DPC @ejesquivel @CaWaterBoards for your strong support for restoring funding to the Delta Independent Science Board. #CAwater #CAdrought #DeltaScience ...
Survey by @DeltaCouncil shows the Delta Independent Science Board is highly valued by all #SacDelta stakeholders. Almost all say the Delta ISB is unique. #DeltaScience #CAwater #CAdrought...
BREAKING @CA_DPC votes unanimously to send "support" letter for #SB821, which restores compensation to Delta Independent Science Board members. Commissioners express strong support for independent science in agency decisionmaking for the Delta. #CAwater #SacDelta #Deltascience
“Legendary” Bay Delta scientist Jim Cloern resigns from Delta Independent Science Board #CAwater #DeltaScience cah2oresearch.com/2021/07/05/legendary-bay...
@DeltaCouncil member Daniel Zingale on the Delta Independent Science Board "We get it." #CAwater #Deltascience
@GavinNewsom @WadeCrowfoot @DeltaCouncil Please restore funding for the Delta Independent Science Board. #Deltascience #SB821 #CALeg
@CAgovernor @SenToniAtkins @NancySkinnerCA @Rendon63rd @AsmPhilTing @WadeCrowfoot @DeltaCouncil Please restore funding for the critical work of the Delta Independent Science Board. #Deltascience #Sciencematters #CAwater #CAdrought #SB821
Delta Counties Coalition to @GavinNewsom: “The Delta faces unprecedented challenges from climate change … Oversight by the nationally prominent scientists on the DISB has never been more critical … ” #deltascience #climatechange #cawater...
@GavinNewsom Please find a way to restore funding for the Delta Independent Science Board. #sacdelta #climatechange #deltascience #sciencematters #BDSC2021 cah2oresearch.com/2021/03/30/delta-indepen...
Delta Independent Science Board #sacdelta Water Quality review now ongoing. Researcher: access to [Delta #cawater] data is frustrating. We need to put the data in an analytical playground where researchers can access it. #Deltascience
