Doug Bostrom<p>"Here we show that vegetation resistance to flash droughts declines by up to 27% (±5%) over the Northern Hemisphere hotspots during 2001-2022, including eastern Asia, western North America, and northern Europe. The notable decline in vegetation resistance is mainly attributed to increased vapour pressure deficit and temperature, and enhanced vegetation structural sensitivity to water availability."</p><p><a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/FlashDrought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FlashDrought</span></a> <br><a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-58253-z" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nature.com/articles/s41467-025</span><span class="invisible">-58253-z</span></a></p>

Drought Center<p>Following some relief over the winter, flash drought conditions have shown up in Oklahoma as well as Kansas. The majority of Oklahoma, especially in northern areas of the state, has generally received below-normal amounts of precipitation over the past three months. This week’s USDA crop progress report rated Oklahoma’s soil moisture condition as 46% short to very short. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/drought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drought</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/drought2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drought2024</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/flashdrought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flashdrought</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>data</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/news" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>news</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/UnitedStates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedStates</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Oklahoma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Oklahoma</span></a></p>
