This study uses high-resolution modeling experiments and quantifies an effect on enhancing and prolonging the drought by the pa rticular Great Plains land-cover in the 1930s\, as a consequence of decade s of exploitation of the land for production. Dr. Hu will share his findin gs\, results\, and analysis of the study.\n\nJoin in-person or via Zoom.
