About this book
Drought Dynamics: Modeling and Assessment to Confront a Changing Climate synthesizes the latest research findings and practical insights from leading experts in the field. The book provides the knowledge and tools necessary to understand the causes and impacts of drought, predict its occurrence, and implement practical measures to mitigate its effects. It begins with an in-depth review of fundamental drought theory followed by a closer examination of related aspects like social behavior, food security, health, climate, sediment, architecture, and education. Next, a close look at geography information systems including data assessment, models, maps, and visualizations is explored. Additional sections explore drought management, along with community resilience, adaptation, policy, and the economy. New trends in drought studies are presented, including the latest practical technologies and the use of artificial intelligence. Lastly, a series of detailed case studies offer practical insights on data assessment, modeling, experimental studies, and climate change. The editors and contributing authors offer this resource to help build resilience and sustainability in the face of one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time.
