In Mediterranean areas where drought-induced forest dieback and tree mortality have been
widely reported, it is still under debate how the likely risks of climate change will affect tree …

Flash droughts are characterized by rapid onset and intensification, as well as major
environmental and agricultural impacts. In this study, we developed an objective method for …

Flash drought is the result of strong precipitation deficits and/or anomalous increases in
atmospheric evaporative demand (AED), which triggers a rapid decline in soil moisture and …

Abstract A new FAO Penman-Monteith reference evapotranspiration gridded dataset is
introduced, called PISCOeo_pm. PISCOeo_pm has been developed for the 1981–2016 …

There is great interest in determining the effects of forest thinning as a tool to improve growth
recovery from drought in different tree species and climatic conditions. However, we lack a …

The availability of water resources is a major challenge of the Mediterranean region. Intense
land use transformation has impacted the headwaters of river basins that generate most of …

We analyzed the impacts of drought severity on a variety of sectors in a topographically
complex basin (the upper Aragón basin 2181 km 2) in the Central Spanish Pyrenees. Using …

This study presents a climatology and trend analysis of reference crop evapotranspiration
(ETo) over continental Spain and the Balearic Islands. Geographic features of the study …

Reference evapotranspiration (ET 0) estimation is crucial for efficient irrigation planning,
optimized water management and ecosystem modeling, yet it presents significant …

Abstract bioclim is a software package in R language for bioclimatic classification based on
the Type of Bioclimatic Regime approach, which combines climatic and soil properties to …
