Climate warming outweighs vegetation greening in intensifying flash droughts over China
The increasing occurrence of flash droughts with rapid onsets poses a great threat to food security and ecosystem productivity. While temporal trends in flash droughts have been extensively studied, the contributions of climate warming, vegetation greening, and the physiological effect of rising CO 2 to trends in flash drought characteristics remain unclear. Here we show there are significant increasing trends in flash drought frequency, duration…
Flash drought development and cascading impacts associated with the 2010 Russian heatwave
The 2010 western Russian heatwave was characterized by historically high surface temperatures that led to devastating impacts on the environment, economy, and society. Recent studies have attributed a quasi-stationary upper level ridge, sensible heat advection, and land-atmosphere temperature coupling as the primary components for the development of the heatwave event. The results in this study reveal that rapid drought intensification occurred p…
Using the evaporative stress index to monitor flash drought in Australia
Flash drought is a term and concept that has gained increasing attention in the research literature and media since it was first coined in the United States in the early 2000s to describe a drought that has undergone rapid intensification. In Australia the term has recently been used in reference to the 2017/18 drought in eastern Australia. Due to its rapid intensification, the impacts of flash droughts will likely occur too quickly for many of t…
The evolution, propagation, and spread of flash drought in the Central United States during 2012
During 2012, flash drought developed and subsequently expanded across large areas of the Central United States (US) with severe impacts to overall water resources and warm-season agricultural production. Recent efforts have yielded a methodology to detect and quantify flash drought occurrence and rate of intensification from climatological datasets via the standardized evaporative stress ratio (SESR). This study utilizes the North American Region…
Comparison of Agricultural Stakeholder Survey Results and Drought Monitoring Datasets during the 2016 U.S. Northern Plains Flash Drought
The evolution of a flash drought event, characterized by a period of rapid drought intensification, is assessed using standard drought monitoring datasets and on-the-ground reports obtained via a written survey of agricultural stakeholders after the flash drought occurred. The flash drought impacted agricultural production across a five-state region centered on the Black Hills of South Dakota during the summer of 2016. The survey asked producers …
