Once again Mr. Garnett displays the versatility of his talent and the charm of his narrative style.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb).

"The Prairie Drought workshop of May 27-28 2004 drew 76 scientists and resource managers from government, academia and industry to Calgary, Alberta. At the time, the level of interest in the science, impacts and monitoring of drought in western Canada was especially high given the dry weather of the preceding four years; most climate stations in central Alberta and western Saskatchewan had recorded the least precipitation for any 3-4 period and 2001 was generally the driest year on record throughout the region. Most of the papers in these proceedings refer to this recent drought; some directly address its climatology and impacts". Locale: Prairie Provinces; Western Canada.
