. @JST_Ward drew on our work on the UK Drought & #Water scarcity research programme for this @POST_UK brief on resilience of water supplies to #climatechange & impacts of #drought @Project_DRY @HistDroughtsUK

UK outdoor livestock sector is coping but not adapting to drought. Further insights are provided in our last paper published by Prof. Ian Holman, our master student Benjamin Ababio @Ganasty @cranfieldwater, and myself within @HistDroughtsUK @AboutDrought

See the draft programme for @AboutDrought #DroughtDownload at the Royal Society #London next month to explore the final products from the UK Droughts & Water Scarcity research programme. Spaces are limited. See more here https://t.co/G1YTkJSJqD

[Jamie Hannaford @jamiehannahorse]

Maybe not the big news today, but, our paper on oceanic drivers of UK #drought is out. To understand (& predict) drivers of UK #river flows, need a global view of interactions between Atlantic & Pacific. Outcome from @HistDroughtsUK and @CEHScienceNews Hydro Outlooks work.

What impact has the #HeatwaveUK had on river flows? How does 2018 compare to 1976? See the blog below to find out! #Heatwave2018 #drought

[Jamie Hannaford @jamiehannahorse]

On why 2018 is a bit like 1976 but not much like 1976 at the same time (depending on where you are and what's beneath your feet), neatly encapsulated in one excellent graph by @lucybarkerjane https://t.co/MDlEM5BCoR
