Advancing Drought Monitoring and Prediction - Part II

Explore cutting-edge research and advancements in drought monitoring and prediction at this 2-hour conference session from the 2012 AGU Fall Meeting. Delve into topics such as enhanced drought monitoring in the Upper Colorado River Basin, dynamical predictions of meteorological drought, and the development of global and regional drought information systems. Learn about experimental African drought monitoring, the European Drought Observatory, and seasonal drought prediction over the United States. Discover how GRACE observations and NOAH model simulations are being used for drought prediction, and examine efforts to improve drought predictability for water resources management in Texas. Gain insights into climate change impacts on drought severity, area, and duration across the Southwest United States. Access abstracts for each presentation to further explore these critical topics in hydrology and climate science.
