As a Semi-arid country, Burkina Faso is highly vulnerable to climate-related disasters such as drought and flood. Analyzing signature therefore key factor in advocating climate change adaptation at the local scale. In this study, Spatiotemporal trends of were conducted for period 1960–2021 within Massili Basin using standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) package R. The non-p...

drought is a major environmental disaster in many parts of the world. knowledge about the timing, severity and extentof drought can aid planning and decision-making. drought indices derived from in-situ meteorological data have coarsespatial and temporal resolutions, thus, obtaining a real-time drought condition over a large area is difficult. this studyused advanced very high resolution radiom...

The aim of this paper is to investigate characteristics of meteorological and agricultural droughts and their trends in Iran, as well as several subregions with different climate conditions from 1980 to 2013. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Standardized Soil Moisture Index (SSI) are used as the primary indicators of meteorological and agricultural droughts, respectively. This stu...

Observed alternation of global and local meteorological patterns governs increasing drought impact, which puts at risk ecological balance and biodiversity of the alpine forest. Despite considerable attention, drought impact on forest ecosystems is still not entirely understood, and comprehensive forest drought monitoring has not been implemented. In this study, we proposed to bridge this gap ex...

Abstract. The change of climate and environmental conditions has obviously affected the evolution propagation drought in river basins. Hun River basin (HRB) is a region seriously troubled by China, so it particularly urgent to evaluate hydrological investigate threshold triggering HRB. In this study, standardized runoff index (SRI) was applied reveal characteristics drought. Meanwhile, based on...
