5 Urgent questions What is the current state of drought in Europe and what will be the future? Trends Do we observe more frequent or severe drought? What will the future bring? Shall we face more frequent, longer or severe drought? Which indicators? How to communicate to stakeholders, policy makers and general public?
6 Indicators Manifold!! Threshold Aproach
7 INDICATORS Drought propagation Van Loon (PhD, 2013) derived from: Wilhite, NMDC
8 Indicators Drought propagation Precipitation Classical rainfall deficit drought Soil moisture Groundwater River flow Van Loon & Van Lanen, (HESS, 2012) time
9 INDICATORS Two types of approaches STANDARDISED APPROACHES THRESHOLD METHODS
10 INDICATORS Two types of approaches STANDARDISED APPROACHES THRESHOLD METHODS
11 Indicators SPI = Standardized Precipitation Index (meteorological indicator) SPEI = Standardized Precipitation and Evaporation Index
12 Indicators SPI = Standardized Precipitation Index SPEI = Standardized Precipitation and Evaporation Index SGI = Standardized Groundwater Index SRI = Standardized Runoff Index
13 INDICATORS Standardised approaches Ten Broek et al., (DROUGHT-R&SPI TR 15, 2014 )
14 Indicators Study past drought (meteorological indicators SPI, SPEI) European Drought Reference Database (EDR) Development of 1976 drought (example of use of indicators) Stagge et al. (DROUGHT-R&SPI TR 12, 2013)

41 Concluding Remarks Drought in Europa Drought assessment requires distinction of different drought types (meteorological, hydrological,...) Correlation between drought indicators is rather low Potentially-impacted sector determines which drought type and drought indicator is most relevant (context-specific, impact-related) Set of single indicators serves potentially-impacted sector best, whereas combined indicators can be used for large-scale awareness raising How to calculate a drought indicator should be prescribed (factsheet?)
42 Concluding Remarks Drought in Europa Drought became more severe and is projected to become severe in multiple regions. Although uncertainty is high (excl. Mediterranean), pro-active measures are needed. Drought management on the river basin scale requires (and beyond if cross-boundary issues) a good governance structure: - Water Allocation/Distribution Committee with sufficient mandate (prior priority ranking) - Continuous dialogue between stakeholders, policy makers, water managers and scientists Drought management (part of Integral Water Management) needs adequate tools (hydrological models, impact models, DSS, risk management) and thematic and transient data (historic and real time)
