Research Project: Reducing Drought Impact Risk

Location: Range Management Research

Project Number: 3050-11210-009-004-A
Project Type: Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Mar 20, 2018
End Date: Sep 30, 2019

Objective:
Host drought resilience solutions workshops leading to adaptation resource development and reduced drought risk. Expand precipitation monitoring to support drought impact knowledge and USDM development. Provide USDA resources and information to reduce wind erosion.

Approach:
Propose a multilevel, solutions-based approach to address snow drought and water scarcity impacts in the southwest region by supporting information provision (to Extension and producers) via workshops, videos and website development, and continuing to expand CoCoRaHS.
