From Texas A&M: “Berg has helped many Texans better understand the research-backed solutions of Texas A&M AgriLife, and his expertise is recognized by many in Texas government. His high-profile work on urban flooding research was featured in the Texas Water Journal and cited in the State Flood Assessment that guided the development of major new flood planning programs. His invited commentary on water-related bills in the Texas Legislature was developed into a webinar promoted by the Texas Water Development Board and viewed by hundreds of water professionals across the state. Berg briefed the Texas delegation to the U.S. Congress on extreme weather and its impacts on Texas water resources and has served on the Texas General Land Office Coastal Resilience Master Plan Technical Advisory Committee. He also shares his expertise through regional and national media outlets, podcasts and public speaking engagements, ensuring that complex water issues are accessible to all Texans.”
