The University and College Designers Association (UCDA) awarded the book three major honours in 2013: the Gold Award in the book category, the Judge's Choice Award, and Best of Show. -- The volume focuses on the "desecrated and overlooked" dry rivers of Tucson, primarily the Rillito River, as a case study for water policy and climate change. - Literary Perspectives: the featured essays and poems provide reflections on the Rillito and the broader desert ecosystem. - Scientific and Policy Overview: contributions from scientists, offering data-driven insights into the region's climate, hydrology, and water management. - Visual and Design Projects: include an environmental series photography, architectural design (proposals for urban water interventions), as well as graphic and information design (data visualisations and maps).
