Introduction

"Rapid swings from intensely wet conditions to extreme dryness are becoming more common, according to a new study. Scientists call it ‘hydroclimate whiplash,’ and it can lead to devastating consequences." - Hydroclimate Whiplash On The Rise Worldwide

With the inrease of global warming and climate change comes the increase in Hydroclimate impacts. This includes the rise in droughts, flooding, impacts on aquifers and clean water access, as well as impacts on soils - for example catastrophic land slides after drought kills off vegetation, making it easier for heavy rains to cause expediated soil errosion.
