Early-warning systems have lowered flood-related fatalities, but costs continue to rise as flood-prone areas continue to be urbanized (U.S. Geological Survey, 2006). A Lake Champlain case study shows that at moderate flood heights, the economic costs of non-structural damages or losses—such as temporary lodging, residential debris removal, commercial revenue losses, and road repair—can be greater than economic damages to buildings. For unprecedented flood heights, non-structural damages can still total more than 10 percent of structural damage costs.

With climate change, increased drought severity, and altered water and land use, future water availability is predicted to continue to decline in many areas, including much of the western United States. An understanding of where and when water will be available at multiple scales is crucial for the planning and management of wildlife health, recreation, and energy development. Currently, indices describing water presence and permanence exist for specific surface-water components (for example, streams and wetlands); however, a general surface-water permanence index that includes all major surface-water components is lacking. Developing a Surface-Water Index of Permanence can provide a reliable metric to understand future river reach- to region-scale surface-water permanence and availability and inform land management and policy decisions.

The Greater Everglades is a vast, subtropical wetland ecosystem in South Florida that contains critical protected areas, harbors impressive biodiversity, and provides water resources for agricultural lands and one of the largest urban areas in the Nation. The region’s protected areas are highly altered by the construction of canals and levees, putting threatened and endangered species at risk. Furthermore, species of concern have different spatial and temporal hydrologic preferences, requiring managers to make tough decisions about optimal ways to distribute the water within the natural areas.
