Hydrologic extremes, including floods, droughts, and abrupt flood-drought alternations, are intensifying in frequency, severity, and complexity due to global warming. These events trigger cascading effects, such as landslides, infrastructure failures, ecosystem degradation, public health crises, and socioeconomic disruptions, posing significant challenges to disaster risk reduction and resilience-building. This session explores their spatiotemporal dynamics, inherent risks, cascading effects, and adaptive strategies. We invite abstracts advancing interdisciplinary approaches to forecasting, mitigation, and adaptation to bolster resilience in a changing climate.
