How much water does each crop use?

We provide improved estimates for each crop by county, water source, & year in the United States.

Our database of ~2.5 million data points is freely available.

Observations from 1980–2020 of near-surface atmospheric water vapor in arid and semi-arid regions don’t match climate models. This gap between expectations and data has major implications for hydroclimate projections, including fire hazards. In PNAS: ow.ly/JFLG50QmrbP

'A direct flight from Boston to Las Vegas would have been shorter by almost 600 miles compared to our multi-modal journey...this meant that our choice to avoid flight led to higher CO2 emissions – approximately 366 kilograms per person (kg/p).'

'At flight distances of over 700 miles, air travel using single-aisle jets can have lower per-passenger CO2 emissions compared to diesel-powered rail travel, accounting for the longer distances by rail'
