Dr Magdalena Szczykulska, UKCEH, discusses the findings of a new study which shows that extreme soil moisture droughts are expected to occur more frequently

In this Water Vlog, Phil Alsop, Editor of Water Magazine, talks with Dr Magdalena Szczykulska, Hydro-Climate Modeller, UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH), as she discusses the findings of a new study from UKCEH scientists which shows that extreme soil moisture droughts in the UK – those lasting 90 days or more – are expected to occur more frequently under climate change.

This could have severe implications for farming, water availability and food security.
