Synopsis

Drought Dynamics: Modeling and Assessment to Confront a Changing Climate synthesizes the latest research findings and practical insights from leading experts in the field. It provides the knowledge and tools necessary to understand the causes and impacts of drought, predict its occurrence, and implement practical measures to mitigate its effects. The book begins with an in-depth review of fundamental drought theory followed by a closer examination of related aspects like social behavior, food security, health, climate, sediment, architecture, and education. Next is a close look at geography information systems including data assessment, models, maps, and visualizations. The editors then explore drought management along with community resilience, adaptation, policy, and the economy. New trends in drought studies are presented including the latest practical technologies and the use of artificial intelligence. Lastly, a series of detailed case studies offers practical insights on data assessment, modeling, experimental studies, and climate change. The editors and contributing authors offer this resource to help build resilience and sustainability in the face of one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Dr. Safari's comprehensive research portfolio centers on water resources through development of climate change adaptation strategies and analysis. His endeavors transcend conventional approaches by not only pioneering novel methodologies for comprehending and modeling water resources problems but also by innovating adaptive and integrated techniques to address the challenges posed by climate change variability and uncertainties using advanced tools such as data science including machine learning and artificial intelligence, statistical and stochastic modeling, and data-driven methodologies. Dr. Safari's past and current researches have resulted in valuable contributions in water resources with over 100 refereed papers in prestigious journals. He is an active reviewer and editor in more than 70 SCI journals. He worked in several national and international research projects as researcher and coordinator. In 2022, Dr. Safari was recognized as a top 2% scientist globally by Elsevier.

Dr. Vaheddoost exemplifies commitment to the hydrology, specializing in advanced data analysis and mining techniques encompassing both linear and non-linear systems across time and frequency domains, alongside model development methodologies. His extensive research portfolio spans groundwater hydrology, drought analysis, water-energy budgeting, model refinement, climate change impact assessments, water quality evaluations, and open channel hydraulics. Moreover, his contributions to the field of water resources are evidenced by the dissemination of over 50 peer-reviewed publications, active involvement in numerous national and international research projects, contributions to authoritative book chapters, and presentations at esteemed conferences. Additionally, Dr. Vaheddoost has significantly enriched scholarly discourse by serving as a meticulous reviewer for more than 600 academic papers, adjudicating submissions for various conferences, and editorial roles in scientific journals.
