In this episode, Aaron Young from UNL's Conservation and Survey Division joins the podcast to talk about the latest Nebraska Groundwater Report which was released earlier this year. We talked about the tedious work that goes into data collection and map making, the areas that saw the biggest declines between the spring of 2022 and 2023, why some areas of the state have actually seen groundwater levels rise over time, why the relationship between temperature and groundwater hasn't been well correlated in Nebraska, and how the High Plains aquifer is faring in Nebraska overall compared to neighboring states.
