• Abstract:
  The primary objective of this project was to compile and synthesize current knowledge and practices related to hydrological approaches for playa lakes, karst terrains, and arid regions. To achieve this, the project began with a comprehensive evaluation of existing research, design guidance, standards, and practices for hydrological studies in these areas, identifying key knowledge gaps and opportunities for improvement. The project also gathered and analyzed data through surveys and interviews with transportation agencies and other stockholders to assess the current state of knowledge, practices, and challenges in hydrology of these complex environments. Insights from the literature review, surveys, and interviews were then synthesized to develop recommendations for future research. These recommendations focus on improving hydrological approaches, methods, and models, addressing design challenges, and supporting the development of sustainable and reliable transportation infrastructure. Detailed recommendations are outlined in Chapter 7.
