Abstract. The 2022 European drought has underscored critical deficiencies in water management. This paper explores these shortcomings and suggests a way forward for risk Data this study was gathered through continent-wide survey of managers involved event. collected 481 responses from 30 countries is comprised 19 questions concerning sectorial impact the 55 regions responders management practices their organizations. Information enriched with climate-related information to offer...

Abstract. The relation between drought severity and impacts is complex relatively unexplored in the African continent. This study assesses reported impacts, indices, water scarcity aridity across several counties Kenya. monthly bulletins of National Drought Management Authority Kenya provided impact data. A random forest (RF) model was used to explore which set indices (standardized precipitation index, standardized evapotranspiration soil moisture index streamflow index) best explains on...

Abstract. Droughts in Europe are becoming increasingly frequent and severe, with the 2022 drought surpassing previous records causing widespread socio-economic impacts. This study employs a Europe-wide survey that integrates data from 481 respondents 30 European countries, involved management of drought, together hydroclimatic (i.e., Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index; SPEI), to provide holistic assessment effect preparedness on response effectiveness timeliness during...

Abstract. The relation between drought severity, as expressed through widely used indices, and impacts is complex. In particular in water-limited regions where water scarcity prevalent, the attribution of difficult. This study assesses reported impacts, scarcity, aridity across several counties Kenya. monthly bulletins National Drought Management Authority Kenya have been to gather impact data. A Random Forest (RF) model was explore which set indices best explains on: pasture, livestock...
