• —Built PSWI, a new metric that multiplies peak water use by local water stress (WRI Aqueduct 4.0) to show the real water impact of a data center
• —Audited 53 hyperscale and colocation facilities across 8 companies; found a 4,100× gap between the best (Hamina, Finland) and worst (Phoenix, AZ) operators
• —Ran a 1,000-run Monte Carlo sensitivity analysis; the ranking held at ρ = 0.982 even with coefficients shifted ±50%
• —Wrote a policy proposal for SEC-style quarterly PSWI disclosure; open dataset and code at github.com/hrihaan19/pswi-data-center-audit

• —Reproducible Python pipeline that estimates scope-1 and scope-2 water use for 1,474 US data centers by state, using IM3 Atlas facility data
• —Full sensitivity analysis across power density, WUE, and EWIF coefficients; swap in new coefficients and re-run in minutes
