Details

Some of the most important UK droughts have also been significant droughts across much of Europe. Researchers from the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH), the Walker Institute and JBA Consulting have investigated potential relationships in the occurrence, development and extent of droughts in the UK and mainland Europe with a view to assessing whether UK drought forecasting can be improved.
