Drought is a common hydrometeorological phenomenon and a pervasive global hazard. As
our climate changes, it is likely that drought events will become more intense and frequent …

East Africa (EA) has been the primary focus for various drought studies in recent years.
However, a comprehensive analysis of droughts, including their evolution, complexity, social …

Quantifying how climate change drives drought is a priority to inform policy and adaptation
planning. We show that the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) …

Drought prediction is of critical importance to early warning for drought managements. This
review provides a synthesis of drought prediction based on statistical, dynamical, and hybrid …

Drought is a complex natural hazard that impacts ecosystems and society in many ways.
Many of these impacts are associated with hydrological drought (drought in rivers, lakes …

This paper reviews recent progress in the study and understanding of extreme seasonal
events in the Amazon region, focusing on drought and floods. The review includes a history …

Growth in satellite observations and modelling capabilities has transformed drought
monitoring, offering near-real-time information. However, current monitoring efforts focus on …

Drought monitoring and early warning (M & EW) systems are a crucial component of drought
preparedness. M & EW systems typically make use of drought indicators such as the …

Impacts of a drought are generally dependent on the severity of the hydrological drought
event, which can be expressed by streamflow drought duration or deficit volume. For …

Increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are expected to modify
the global water cycle with significant consequences for terrestrial hydrology. We assess the …
