  1. Impacts of Land Use Change on Water Availability, Management, and Resilience in Arid Region Riparian Ecosystems: A Case Study of the San Pedro and Rio Sonora Watersheds Lily House-Peters and Dr. Chris Scott School of Geography and Regional Development

  2. Cananea Research Question Does land use/land cover in arid border watersheds affect riparian corridor resilience? (Source: Michael Hansen, 2010) (Source: Chris Scott, 2010) (Source: mining-journal.com, 2010) (Source: Scott et al., 2010)

  3. Research Methods September, 1986 October, 2005 October, 2010 October, 1996 (Water bodies (km2), 2005) (Agriculture (km2), 2005) (Milk production (L), 2008)

  4. Implications • Mitigation/adaption measures – erode or enhance resilience? • Improved stakeholder decision-making • Translational science policy • Scenario development
