Chapter AT: Speaker Information for June 22

The Ecological Impacts of
Long-Term Water Scarcity

Clint Carter, Watershed Ecologist

 The Program explores how hydrometeorological extremes — including extended drought and severe flooding — are reshaping the Texas Hill Country and placing increasing stress on riverine and riparian ecosystems.

Carter will discuss the ecological impacts of long-term water scarcity and highlight how geospatial technologies are being used to measure vegetation loss, assess habitat vulnerability, and evaluate ecosystem resilience following major flood events, including the historic July 4th flood.

About the Speaker: Clint Carter is the Watershed Ecologist for the Bandera County River Authority and Groundwater District, where he leads efforts focused on water quality monitoring, riparian health, invasive species management, and watershed restoration. He also serves on the boards of the Texas Riparian Association and the Kerr County River Foundation.

Looking Ahead

Mark your calendars now for our July 27, Chapter meeting. Details will be posted here when available.
