Texas Water Resources Institute
Making every drop count since 1952.
What We Do
TWRI coordinates, facilitates, and delivers science-based, community-supported solutions for current and future water challenges through internal expertise and external collaborations. We are a unit of Texas A&M AgriLife Research that brings together expertise from across the Texas A&M University System.
Our Projects
TWRI Resources
Our updated resources page lists Texas water topics from A-Z, including:
- Agriculture
- Data Maps & Viewers
- Septic Systems & OSSF
- Well Owner Resources
While our resource list of water topics will continue to grow, we have also linked to TWRI Explainers on topics like groundwater, PFAS and green stormwater infrastructure.
