In Canada, hydroclimatic hazards represent more than 90% of the country’s natural hazards. In New Brunswick (NB), the risk of flooding has been extensively studied, particularly along the Saint John River, where damage is significant and frequent (Duhamel et al., 2022; Fortin et al., 2021). However, drought risk is rare and understudied in this province. In this presentation, we describe the risk of droughts over 50 years (1971-2020) based on dif...

To monitor climate-related events such as drought scenario successfully in the Caribbean African regions, innovative technology such as satellite information is required. Studies have shown that temperatures and seasonal rainfall patterns in the Caribbean are changing, and conditions are projected to become more variable in the future. Africa including the regions considered in this study are experiencing the longest and most severe drought on...

Advocates for the Anthropocene accept that humans are significantly altering the environment1. This research addresses the inverse question of whether and how environmental disturbances influence human behavior2. This research further presents empirical evidence of feedback impacts of human adaptation responses on the social-environmental systems3. Clima...

Climate change is a global issue that affects all countries and regions, and the North of Morocco is no exception. In recent years, the use of multi-model ensembles has become increasingly important for predicting future climate scenarios, particularly in the Mediterranean and African regions. This approach involves combining results from different climate models to improve the accuracy of predictions and reduce uncertainties. The North of Morocco, situated at the crossroads of th...
