PhysOrg: Change the Course, a freshwater restoration movement, will restore 1 billion gallons of water to the Colorado River Delta to support the revitalization of wetland habitats in what was once one of the planet's great desert aquatic ecosystems. Change the Course is spearheaded by the National Geographic Society, Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) and Participant Media. Labeled as "a milk-and-honey wilderness" by the great conservationist Aldo Leopold after his trip there in 1922, the Colorado...

PhysOrg: University of Arizona scientists Karl Flessa and Ed Glenn and a binational team of scientists will monitor the effects of an engineered spring flood to bring water to the parched Colorado River delta. The pulse flow of water into the dry lower reaches of the Colorado River began Sunday. "This allocation of environmental water to the Colorado River Delta in Mexico is unprecedented," said Flessa, UA professor of geosciences and co-chief scientist of the monitoring effort. "We need to learn how...

U.S.-Mexico experiment aims to resurrect the Colorado River delta

LA Times: The mighty Colorado River, which over millenniums has carved the Grand Canyon, does an unusual thing when it gets south of the Arizona-Mexico border. It dies. The Morelos Dam -- sitting on the international boundary -- serves as its headstone, diverting nearly all of the river water into an aqueduct that serves agriculture as well as homes in Tijuana.
