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 …

Groundwater is by far the largest unfrozen freshwater resource on the planet. It plays a
critical role as the bottom of the hydrologic cycle, redistributing water in the subsurface and …

Abstract Earth System Models (ESMs) are essential tools for understanding and predicting
global change, but they cannot explicitly resolve hillslope‐scale terrain structures that …

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 …

Understanding the relationship among different types of drought is crucial for drought
mitigation and early warnings. Much attention has been recently focused on the propagation …

Shallow groundwater affects terrestrial ecosystems by sustaining river base-flow and root-
zone soil water in the absence of rain, but little is known about the global patterns of water …

Climate variability and recurrent droughts have caused remarkable strain on water
resources in most regions across the globe, with the arid and semi-arid areas being the …

Owing to the rise in water demand and looming climate change, recent years have
witnessed much focus on global drought scenarios. As a natural hazard, drought is best …

Quantitative approaches to assess the complexity of groundwater drought are hindered by
the lack of direct observations of groundwater over space and time. Here, we present an …

What the extent of meteorological drought could trigger the corresponding hydrological
drought with different levels? This question is an important topic in the field of drought …
