Speaker: Benjamin Zaitchik, Johns Hopkins University
Location: on-line
Time: 10am
Rapidly intensifying “flash droughts” are climate hazards that have significant impacts on agri-culture and ecosystems. They have also proven to be difficult to predict in Earth System Model ensemble subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) forecast systems. At the same time, empirical S2S forecasts based on Earth Observation (EO) of land surface and vegetation conditions have shown promise. This suggests that vegetation-mediated land-atmosphere interactions play an important role in flash drought development, and that they could contribute meaningfully to predictability in some contexts. In this seminar I will summarize a set of studies designed to improve our diagnosis of flash drought, classify flash drought events in a process-relevant manner, characterize the role vegetation has played in seminal flash drought events, and build towards improved empirical and dynamically-based S2S flash drought forecasts.

GMAO RESEARCH THEME MEETINGS:
The GMAO Research Theme Meetings are open only to GMAO members. These internal meetings, provide an opportunity for GMAO researchers to present new research results to their colleagues and to discuss their work and its implications for GEOS systems. Each year, two seasons of meetings are held on roughly two Thursdays each month.
