Using SIMGRO for drought analysis – as demonstrated for the Taquari Basin, Brazil [PDF]

, 2010
Tools were developed and tested to quantify space–time development of droughts at the river basin scale. The spatial development of a hydrological drought in river basins brings different challenges to describe drought characteristics, such as: area in a

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Interactions between maternal provisioning and natural selection on seed mass fluctuate across heat waves

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

Study of meteorological‐hydrological drought propagation under reservoir regulation using a Copula‐Bayesian network in the Hanjiang River Basin

River
Reservoir operations play a pivotal role in modifying drought propagation processes, particularly by influencing the transition from meteorological to hydrological drought.

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Drought: Economic Consequences and Policies for Mitigation Global Overview [PDF]

The natural variation in climate around the world means that periods of severe shortfall of rainfall are inevitable, and some times occur on a large geographical scale.

Understanding drought propagation and its implications for drought management [PDF]

, 2020
Droughts have been recognized as one of the most complex natural disasters, especially because they involve interactions between numerous climatological, hydrological and human processes.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

A factorial Bayesian propagation ensemble approach for quantifying multi-factor effects on meteorological-hydrological drought transmission

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: The Loess Plateau of China Study focus: Meteorological drought (MD) is the main driver and precursor of hydrological drought (HD). This process is susceptible to multiple factors.

Triggering thresholds and influential factors in the propagation of meteorological drought to hydrological drought

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study regions: The Huaihe River Basin (HRB), China Study focus: Quantifying the thresholds for the systematic propagation of meteorological drought (MD) to different levels of hydrological drought (HD) is essential for early warning and precision management of HDs.
