Climate Impacts on New Connected Infrastructure VulnerabilitiesObjective: Assessment of the vulnerability of new configurations of infrastructures and their interdependencies in response to Climate Drivers, Population Movements, Expansion and abandonment of infrastructure networks, water forecasts, technology insertion
Oak Ridge, Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories

Water Supply Vulnerability
Climate Impact on Reservoir Storage
Climate Impact on Precipitation
Projected capacity in drought conditions for those reservoirs supplying water for thermoelectric generation

Water Supply for Development
Availability of two different supplies of water for future development. Unappropriated surface water is based on drought of record. Outlined basins indicated locations of projected future thermoelectric water demands.
