Drought is a costly natural hazard with far-reaching impacts on agriculture, ecosystem, water
supply, and socio-economy. While propagating through the water cycle, drought evolves into …

Drought is one of the most difficult natural hazards to quantify and is divided into categories
(meteorological, agricultural, ecological and hydrological), which makes assessing recent …

This review examines the role of the atmospheric evaporative demand (AED) in drought.
AED is a complex concept and here we discuss possible AED definitions, the subsequent …

With a copula-based probabilistic model, this study presents a global view on the
propagation of meteorological to soil moisture drought. Meta-Gaussian and three …

Under the background of global warming, the acceleration of water cycle process will
aggravate the risk of hydrological drought in the river basin. The Yellow River basin (YRB) is …

Exploring the propagation from meteorological drought to hydrological drought and its
potential influence factors is crucial for early warning of hydrological drought. As a case …

Drought impacts on the society and environment are influenced by how droughts propagate
through the hydrologic cycle; however, the physical processes involved in drought …

As a costliest natural hazard, drought profoundly affects water resources, agriculture, and
socio-economic sectors in India. In spite of large spatio-temporal variability in droughts, the …

Meteorological drought propagating to hydrological drought usually occurs with a noticeable
time delay due to the catchment buffering effect. Knowledge gain in the delayed hydrological …

Quantifying the changes and propagation of drought is of great importance for regional eco-
environmental safety and water-related disaster management under global warming. In this …
