Flash Drought Monitoring, Predictability, and Impacts in a Changing Climate - Posters

Wednesday, 31 January 2024: 3:00 PM-4:30 PM
Hall E (The Baltimore Convention Center)
Host: 38th Conference on Hydrology

Flash drought, characterized by its unusually rapid intensification, has garnered increasing attention in the physical science and impacts communities in recent years due to its compounding and cascading physical causes and socioeconomic effects. We invite submissions that advance our ability to monitor, understand, and predict the complex interactions between terrestrial, atmospheric, and oceanic processes that can be used to anticipate the effects and improve early warning of flash droughts in our changing climate. We also invite submissions that further our understanding of anthropogenic effects on flash drought and our understanding of the linkages between flash drought and impacts on energy, food, health, and water security.

Submitters:  Andrew J. Hoell, NOAA/Physical Sciences Laboratory, Boulder, CO; Mike Hobbins, NOAA-Physical Sciences Laboratory, Boulder, CO; Hailan Wang, CPC, College Park, MD; Jason A Otkin, Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison, Space Science and Engineering Center, Madison, WI and Jordan I. Christian, School of Meteorology, Univ. of Oklahoma, NORMAN, OK
