The 2022 National Soil Moisture Workshop returned to an in-person format after a 2-year hiatus (with a limited virtual option), hosted by the Ohio State University, in Columbus, OH on August 9–10, 2022.
This workshop provided a unique opportunity for leaders in soil moisture research and development to come together in an interactive format to exchange ideas and develop collaborations across their research areas and with the user community. This was the 13th consecutive year for the workshop, which was started by the researchers who created the Marena, Oklahoma, In Situ Sensor Testbed (MOISST). It has now grown to be a premier event for sharing new soil moisture research.
The North Central Climate Adaptation Science Center (CASC) is hosting this workshop as part of its Climate Solutions Days to facilitate a discussion of basic concepts related to ecological drought; relate processes and drivers of drought to specific metrics (e.g., soil moisture, evaporative demand) and indices (e.g., SPEI, FDSI, EDDI); and demonstrate select online tools to visualize and quantify drought events in the historical period and under future climate scenarios.
The U.S. Geological Survey and National Integrated Drought Information System hosted a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This webinar included an overview and synthesis of key take-aways from the series of listening sessions, discussion of next steps, and time for Q&A and participant feedback.
The U.S. Geological Survey and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System are pleased to announce a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This listening session, held on September 8, 2022, included a short introduction to water availability prediction products for ecosystems, followed by guided discussions with participants on research priorities for product development or improvement at the national and/or regional scale.
The U.S. Geological Survey and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System are pleased to announce a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This listening session, held on July 14, 2022, included a short introduction to water use information products, followed by guided discussions with participants on research priorities for product development or improvement at the national and/or regional scale.
The U.S. Geological Survey and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System are pleased to announce a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This listening session, held on May 5, 2022, included a short introduction to groundwater drought prediction products, followed by guided discussions with participants on research priorities for product development or improvement at the national and/or regional scale.
The U.S. Geological Survey and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System are pleased to announce a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This listening session, held on March 3, 2022, included a short introduction to streamflow drought prediction products, followed by guided discussions with participants on research priorities for product development or improvement at the national and/or regional scale.
The U.S. Geological Survey and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System are pleased to announce a series of listening sessions to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This webinar, held on February 9, 2022, introduced upcoming end user listening sessions and provided a short overview of the USGS Drought Program work to characterize hydrological (e.g., streamflow and groundwater) drought variability, drivers and trends over the past century.
