The Southwest has seen record-setting snowpack this winter. Short-term drought in the region has greatly improved. As we look forward to the spring melt, what will this mean for reservoir storage and long-term drought? This webinar looked at current and forecasted drought conditions for Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Utah and then highlighted the LandPKS (Land Potential Knowledge System) as a tool to monitor land changes over time.

Presentations

• Current Climate Conditions and Outlook: Joe Casola, NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information
• Land Potential Knowledge System: Jeff Herrick, USDA's Agricultural Research Service
