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 drought monitoring relies on ground observation data, which cannot be used
to reflect large-scale droughts in groundwater resources. The Gravity Recovery and Climate …

Drought has broad and deep impacts on vegetation. Studies on the effects of drought on
vegetation have been conducted over years. Recently, the cumulative effect of drought is …

The propagation of meteorological drought in the hydrological cycle not only leads to the
deficits of surface soil moisture, which results in agricultural drought, but also probably …

Vegetation is an important link between water, atmosphere and land, and the growth of
vegetation is an important indicator of ecosystem change. Therefore, it is essential to study …

Increasing frequency and intensity of extreme drought events have harmed the environment,
ecosystem, and agricultural productivity. However, the characteristics of agricultural drought …

Iran has a predominantly arid and semi‐arid climate where the drought hazards and their
variability are the crucial concerns for water resources management. This study assesses …

Land surface temperature (LST) is crucial in surface energy balance, urban climatology,
intensifying global change, ecological and environmental concerns. The present study …

Investigating spatiotemporal pattern and propagation mechanism of meteorological drought
is of great significance to develop early warning system for drought-affected regions and …

Clarifying drought propagation characteristics is crucial for grasping the mechanism of
drought development and evolvement and also for identifying the early warning signs of …
