Droughts can affect a multitude of public and private sectors, with impacts developing slowly over time. While droughts are traditionally quantified in relation to the hydrological components water cycle that they affect, this manuscript demonstrates novel approach assess future drought conditions through lens water-energy-food-ecosystem (WEFE) nexus concept. To end, set standardized indices specifically designed represent different sectors across 50 catchments Sweden was computed based on...
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...
Sweden, known for its abundant water resources, has recently experienced drought events with significant socio-economic and environmental impacts, revealing existing vulnerabilities in the society. Future climatic projections indicate changes precipitation temperature patterns, stressing need improved risk management. The vulnerability component of is often less studied than hazard component, primarily due to inherent complexity. Drought highly context-dependent, shaped by interplay social,...
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...
The future risk for droughts and water shortages calls substantial efforts by authorities to adapt at local levels. Understanding their perception of drought hazards, vulnerability can help identify drivers barriers planning management in a changing climate the level. This paper presents novel interdisciplinary case study Sweden that integrates soft data from nationwide survey among more than 100 practitioners hard based on hydrological measurements provide holistic assessment links between...
In a changing climate, the assessments of drought risk and vulnerability are becoming increasingly important. Responding to global call for proactive approach management, there is now growing emphasis on within research community. Since manifestation depends social, ecological, hydroclimatic context in which it unfolds, recognizing factors specific particular climatological ecological regions could enhance accuracy reliability assessments. However, holistic overview affecting polar cold...
Abstract. The European continent has experienced several large-scale drought events in recent years, and climate projections suggest an increasing risk many parts of the world. As droughts can have large impacts on socio-hydrological systems, analyzing is important part for proactive management disaster reduction. Drought be expressed as a product hazard, exposure vulnerability, where vulnerability highly contextual complex. affect all hydrological system, from precipitation soil moisture to...
The 2022 European drought has underscored critical deficiencies in water management.This paper delves into these shortcomings and suggests a way forward for risk management using Europe-wide survey among managers involved the event.Information from is enriched with climate-related information to offer comprehensive overview of Europe.Our research focuses on four key aspects: increasing drought, its spatial temporal impacts, current approaches, evolution across continent.Our findings reveal...
Abstract. There is a global call for proactive drought risk management, stressing the need to further our understanding of systemic nature risk. Proactive management requires not only an hazard itself, but also underlying vulnerabilities in socio-hydrological systems. As result, vulnerability assessments are increasingly conducted across globe. However, complex and shaped by social, ecological hydroclimatic context. Thus, how manifested depending on regional, sectoral or societal differences...

In a changing climate, drought risk and vulnerability assessments are becoming increasingly important. Following the global call for proactive management, progressively taking its stage in research community. As manifestation of is dependent on social, ecological hydroclimatic context which it occurs, identifying factors relevant specific climatological regions may improve quality assessments. Meanwhile, holistic overview affecting polar cold climates currently lacking, although recent...
The future risk for droughts and water shortages calls substantial efforts by authorities to adapt at local levels. Understanding their perception of drought hazards, vulnerability can help identify drivers barriers planning management in a changing climate the level. We present novel interdisciplinary case study Nordic country that integrates soft data from nation-wide survey among more than 100 practitioners hard based on hydrological measurements provide holistic assessment links between...
