Inhaltsangabe

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.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Dr. Mir Jafar Sadegh Safari is a hydrologist and associate professor at Yaşar University, and currently a
research associate at Toronto Metropolitan University. His comprehensive research portfolio centers on water
resources, hydrological modeling, environmental systems, and hydraulics. His interdisciplinary work integrates
AI, GIS, and hydrological modeling for sustainable water management. His endeavors transcend conventional
approaches by innovating adaptive and integrated techniques to address the challenges posed by climate change
variability and uncertainties.

Dr. Babak Vaheddoost serves as an associate professor at Bursa Technical University, Türkiye. His work
reflects a sustained scholarly commitment to hydrological sciences, particularly through the application of
sophisticated data analysis and mining approaches to both linear and nonlinear systems, examined across temporal
and spectral domains. His research activities encompass a wide array of topics, including groundwater–surface
water interactions, drought and flood characterization, water-energy budget, climate change implications, water
quality assessment, and flow dynamics.
