Scenarios about 'drought management'
The systematic approach to planning, monitoring, and implementing strategies to mitigate the effects of water scarcity during periods of abnormally low precipitation. Drought management encompasses water conservation policies, irrigation efficiency, reservoir operations, groundwater protection, and emergency response systems developed throughout history to protect agriculture, urban water supplies, and ecosystems. These practices have become increasingly sophisticated and critical as climate patterns shift, influencing how societies adapt to changing environmental conditions in both historical and alternate timeline scenarios.
