Responses to Drought and Flooding

Water plays a significant role in the life cycle of plants. However, insufficient or excess of water can be detrimental and pose a serious threat to plants. Under normal conditions, water taken up by the plant evaporates from leaves and other parts in a process called transpiration. In times of drought stress, water that evaporates by transpiration far exceeds the water absorbed from the soil, causing plants to wilt. The general plant response to drought stress is the synthesis of hormone...

Source: Hassan, J. A., et al. High-Throughput Identification of Resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv. Tomato in Tomato using Seedling Flood Assay. J. Vis. Exp. (2020).This video demonstrates a method to screen for bacterial resistance in different tomato strains using ten-day-old seedlings inoculated with a bacterial suspension. It explains how bacteria invade through stomata, deliver effector proteins to suppress plant immunity, and how plant responses differ between susceptible and resistant...

2025
Flood risk assessment involves careful planning and analysis to ensure the safety of communities near water retention structures. Capacity contours are a vital tool in this process, as they illustrate the potential spread of water at specific levels in a given area. In the context of building a bund across a small valley, these contours play a critical role in evaluating the safety of nearby residential areas.In this example, the bund is intended to store stormwater in the valley. The engineers...

Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

FAQs
The central learning target is not immediate calm but new information gained while the person remains in contact with the feared trigger. Continued contact can show that distress is tolerable and that an anticipated catastrophe may not occur. This learning may reduce reliance on avoidance, which otherwise can preserve anxiety and limit everyday functioning.
Escape and safety behaviors can prevent a person from fully learning what happens when the feared trigger is faced. The clinician therefore helps the person remain engaged with the trigger without using those responses. This supports direct learning about tolerating distress and testing feared expectations, rather than reinforcing the belief that safety depended on avoidance.
Flooding Therapy presents the feared object, situation, memory, or bodily sensation at high intensity instead of building contact gradually. The key difference is the intensity and timing of exposure, not simply whether exposure occurs. Because the approach can be demanding, its use depends on careful assessment, informed consent, and skilled clinical supervision.
High-intensity contact can make the treatment demanding, so the clinician must consider whether the approach is appropriate for the individual and target fear. Careful assessment helps guide that decision, while informed consent ensures the person understands the treatment. Skilled supervision supports remaining with the trigger and avoiding escape or safety behaviors during the process.
The clinician first conducts careful assessment and obtains informed consent before using a high-intensity exposure. This preparation is important because the treatment directly engages a feared object, situation, memory, or bodily sensation. The clinician also establishes how the person will remain in contact with the trigger without escape or safety behaviors during treatment.
Reported applications include phobias, panic, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and trauma-related fears. These problems differ in the form of the feared trigger, which may be an external situation, a memory, or a bodily sensation. Across these applications, the relevant outcome is learning that distress can be tolerated and that avoidance need not control daily functioning.
