The CIROH Visiting Scholars Program provided Dr. Mohamed Fathi Said and Dr. Wei Zhang with everything they needed to learn about hydroclimatic whiplash. Through their research collaboration with Dr. Mukesh Kumar, high-performance computing resources and plenty of uninterrupted coding time, these visiting scholars impacted hydrologic forecasting and created a lifelong friendship and collaboration.
CIROH partnered with NIDIS through hydrologic scientist Dr. Elliot Wickham to connect drought research to drought preparation in the Southeast. By making critical information available to community decision-makers as droughts develop, this partnership supports drought resilience throughout the region.
CIROH announces $25.5 million in funding for 47 new research projects that will help communities better prepare for floods, droughts and changing water conditions. Supported by NOAA and USGS, this work will improve water forecasting tools, expand the use of AI, strengthen coastal and flood prediction and advance new observing technologies to turn cutting-edge science…
