According to an experimental forecast issued in June, 50% of the global oceans could experience heat wave conditions by September 2023.
Without ocean warming, that predicted heat wave area would drop from 50% of the global ocean to 25%.

A new study, funded in part by MAPP and @DroughtGov has developed a high-resolution drought forecast model for the Western U.S.

Watch the video below to learn more about this new #drought prediction model.

Marine heatwave research has primarily focused on sea surface temperature extremes. While surface marine heatwaves can have dramatic impacts on marine ecosystems, new research shows how extreme warming along the seafloor can also have significant impacts.

In the thrall of a 22-year megadrought, the record snowpack in SW Colorado was a welcome break. When scientists installed a state-of-the-art observing network in the East River watershed in the fall of 2021, they couldn’t have imagined a year like this.

A series of atmospheric rivers in Dec-Jan, fueled by tropical moisture, flooded parts of the West with rain and snow in January 2023. The abundant precipitation caused landslides and dangerous travel conditions, but also helped improve drought conditions.

Decades of drought & a growing demand for water in the Colorado River Basin have brought Lake Mead to historic low water levels. Today, Landsat 9 shows the lake’s water level at 1,041—the lowest since the 1930s. https://t.co/57oI8zD8YS
