vEGU2021 HS4.2 "Drought and water scarcity" session: call for abstracts and special issue on NHESS
Brunella Bonaccorso
Dear colleagues,
We cordially invite you to contribute to HS4.2 "Drought and water scarcity: monitoring, modelling and forecasting to improve hydro-meteorological risk management".
The aim of the session is to bring together scientists and practitioners in the fields of hydrology and meteorology, as well as stakeholders and practitioners in the field of water resources management, interested in monitoring, modelling and forecasting drought and water scarcity, and in analyzing their interrelationships and hydrological impacts. Particularly welcome are applications and real-world case studies in regions subject to significant water stress, where the importance of drought warning, supported through state-of-the-art monitoring and forecasting of water resources availability is likely to become more important in the future.

Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention on our Special Issue (SI) entitled "Recent advances in drought and water scarcity monitoring, modelling, and forecasting", to be published in the open access journal Natural Hazard and Earth System Sciences (ISSN 1561-8633, eISSN 1684-9981, IF 3.102).
The purpose of the special issue is to present recent advances and future challenges in drought and water scarcity monitoring, modelling, and prediction capabilities to improve risk management, adaptation strategies, and resilience to such adverse events.
For further reading, please follow the link to the Special Issue Website at:
