The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and NOAA’s National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) are holding a series of listening sessions on Drought Prediction and Water Availability to seek input on priorities and needs related to predicting water availability changes under drought conditions at national and regional scales. This input will be used to guide USGS Drought Program planning and orientation, as well as to inform other national drought programs.
This second listening session, focused on groundwater, was held on May 5, 2022, and 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 or regional scale.
This presentation by Todd Caldwell, Groundwater Hydrologist, USGS Nevada Water Science Center, is titled "Groundwater drought: Onset, recovery, and propagation."
