Improved Tools for Drought Planning and Management
A Framework for Generating Exploratory Scenarios
 of Drought Conditions Using Tree-Ring Information

 "EXPLORATORY SCENARIOS describe the future according to known processes of change and extrapolations from the past by incrementally progressing through time."
 
SAHRA Scenario Development Group
This site provides a compilation of  information to aid in the construction of exploratory scenarios of drought conditions in the Southwest through the use of tree-ring based streamflow reconstructions of the Salt-Verde-Tonto and Upper Colorado river basins.
