Climate data analysis and drought indices for the Sulaimanyah region as a co-author

From November 5-7, I will participate in the GeoKurdistan VI Conference, where I will present a collaborative study on climate data analysis and drought indices for the Sulaimanyah region as a co-author. This conference brings together researchers, scientists, and policymakers from various fields to share knowledge and insights on the latest advancements in geoscience and environmental studies in the Kurdistan Region.

In our presentation, we will focus on the climate data analysis conducted in Sulaimanyah, emphasizing the application of drought indices such as the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Drought Severity Index (DSI). These indices help in quantifying and monitoring the severity, duration, and spatial extent of drought events and their impact on the local environment and water resources. The study will also explore how changing climatic patterns in the region, including increasing temperatures and decreasing rainfall, contribute to the frequency and intensity of drought conditions in Sulaimanyah.

Key Discussion Points:

  1. Climate Data Analysis:
    • Examining historical climate data to understand trends in temperature and precipitation patterns over the past few decades.
    • Identifying seasonal variations and their impact on water availability and agricultural productivity.
  2. Drought Indices and Their Application:
    • How drought indices are used to assess drought conditions and predict potential future drought events in the region.
    • The importance of early warning systems to enable mitigation and adaptation strategies for local communities, particularly in agriculture and water management.
  3. Impact of Drought on the Sulaimanyah Region:
    • Exploring the economic, social, and environmental consequences of drought, including water scarcity, agricultural losses, and food insecurity.
    • Discussing how climate change exacerbates these challenges, with a focus on vulnerable populations in rural areas.
  4. Proposed Solutions:
    • Implementing sustainable water management practices and water conservation measures to mitigate the effects of drought.
    • Promoting the adoption of climate-smart agriculture techniques and drought-resistant crops to enhance food security.
    • Building climate resilience through reforestation projects, improved irrigation systems, and community-based disaster preparedness programs.

The  growing body of knowledge on climate change and drought management in the Kurdistan Region and to help identify practical solutions to reduce the vulnerability of local communities to climate-related risks. By participating in this event, we hope to raise awareness of the urgent need for data-driven decision-making to address climate change and sustainably manage natural resources in the region.

 

From January 25 to 27, 2025, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Rudaw TV in conducting air quality measurements both around and within Erbil city. In this project, I worked as a technician and analyzer, using advanced techniques and tools to monitor air pollution levels. This effort aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 12), which focuses on responsible consumption and production, and SDG 13, which emphasizes urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. Through this work, I contributed to raising awareness of environmental issues in the region.
