Rapid intensification of the emerging southwestern North American megadrought in 2020-2021

A. Park Williams et al.

Summary: Southwestern North America has been experiencing a megadrought since 2000, with lower precipitation and higher temperatures. This drought, which spans from 2000 to 2021, is the driest 22-year period since 800 AD, with 19% of the severity in 2021 attributed to climate change. The drought severity in southwestern North America from 2000 to 2018 exceeded that of a megadrought in the late-1500s. Following the exceptional drought severity in 2021, which is 19% attributable to anthropogenic climate trends, the period from 2000 to 2021 is the driest 22-year period since at least 800 AD, and it is likely to persist through 2022, matching the duration of the late-1500s megadrought.

Social risk perceptions of climate change: A case study of farmers and agricultural advisors in northern California

Margiana Petersen-Rockney

Summary: Crop and livestock farmers in rural areas face physical effects of climate change as well as social risks. Some farmers are hesitant to publicly align themselves with climate change actions due to perceived social consequences. The role of public agricultural advisors is crucial in framing climate policies and practices.

How climate change and fire exclusion drive wildfire regimes at actionable scales

Erin J. Hanan et al.

Summary: Extreme wildfires are increasing globally, prompting new efforts to mitigate risk. The ecological appropriateness of risk mitigation strategies depends on the factors driving these increases. Recent advances in fire regime modeling can help understand which drivers dominate at management-relevant scales.

A Shorter, Sharper Rainy Season Amplifies California Wildfire Risk

Daniel L. Swain

Summary: California has seen increasingly severe autumn wildfires in recent decades, with a clear link to climate change. Recent research shows that the delay in autumn precipitation and increased sharpness of precipitation seasonality in California have important implications for ecology and wildfire risk. These observations align with climate model projections, suggesting that recent trends could be a preview of larger changes to come.

Narrow and Brittle or Broad and Nimble? Comparing Adaptive Capacity in Simplifying and Diversifying Farming Systems

Margiana Petersen-Rockney et al.

Summary: The article discusses two different strategies for building adaptive capacity in farming systems in response to climate change, biodiversity loss, and global food insecurity: simplification and diversification. The study finds that diversifying processes can create a more flexible and resilient adaptive capacity, while simplification processes result in a narrower and more brittle adaptive capacity.
