-==== Anthropogenic influences on streamflow droughts in Germany ====+==== Anthropogenic influences on streamflow droughts in Germany (L. Gerke) ====
  
 Streamflow droughts, defined as below normal water in rivers, occur all around the world. Research to streamflow droughts in catchments with natural flow conditions is crucial to gain process understanding about the natural influences on the latter. However, catchments completely free of anthropogenic disturbances are sparse, especially in densely populated countries such as Germany. Furthermore, the locations of catchments with near-natural flow are often not representative for regions with a high socioeconomic vulnerability to droughts. In these more vulnerable areas, human activities like groundwater extraction can intensify streamflow droughts. On the other hand, constructions such as reservoirs might mitigate or limit the severity of drought events. The question is how different kinds of human activities influence streamflow drought characteristics. Streamflow droughts, defined as below normal water in rivers, occur all around the world.
