Climatol., 54, A pair of equal and opposite electric charges or magnetic poles of opposite sign separated especially by a small distance. An abrupt year-to-year transition from drought to pluvial (flood). Able to erase multi-year droughts in a matter of months. Droughts of Record Probability of a significant drought year followed by a pluvial year: - SGP: 25% - NGP: 25% - HP: 16%

International Journal of Climatology, 38, doi: /joc.5223.
18 Take-Away Message The Great Plains domain is a region defined by dynamic weather/climate variability includes subseasonal to seasonal extremes. Precipitation variability is increasing, especially the temporal aspect Process variability is increasing. The results of the increase in precipitation variability is that: Increased frequency in the oscillations between drought/pluvial periods, Impacts the asnychonicity between the annual peaks in temperature and precipitation, Along with local coupling, may be impacting the generation of flash drought conditions, Driven by to local to global processes. Impacts span many local socioeconomic sectors especially agriculture. Much work to be done Additional Drivers? Predicability? Projections?
