Drought propagation from meteorological to agricultural drought: Lagged response and risk amplification in Central Asia

Multi-scale propagation of meteorological to agricultural drought across China: probabilities and dominant drivers

Understanding propagation dynamics from meteorological to agricultural drought for improved forecasting and preparedness

State-dependent drought propagation from soil moisture to vegetation under a non-stationary climate

Drought propagation from soil moisture to vegetation is a complex process influenced by ecosystem characteristics and climate. The combined effects of ecosystem characteristics and a non-stationary climate on this process remain poorly understood. In this study, the dynamics of drought propagation across Iran from...

Projecting global soil moisture droughts under climate change: characteristics, agricultural exposure, and adaptation insights

The intensification of global warming has increased the severity, frequency, and duration of extreme drought events, posing significant threats to agricultural stability. This study introduces a framework for assessing global agricultural drought impacts under climate change by integrating soil moisture data from 17 CM...

From Rainless Days to Systemic Drought Risk in Indonesia: Climate Drivers, Drought Propagation, Food–Water Vulnerability, and Adaptive Resilience

Prolonged rainless periods are an increasingly important climate-risk signal in Indonesia, but their societal significance cannot be understood from rainfall duration alone. This qualitative literature review synthesizes recent evidence on how meteorological dryness evolves into agricultural, hydrological, and socioeco...

Spatial-Based Analysis of Rice Field Drought Levels in West Sumatra Province

Drought is a natural disaster that significantly impacts the agricultural sector, water availability, and public welfare. This study aims to identify drought in rice fields in West Sumatra using the Standardised Precipitation Index (SPI) and Normalised Difference Drought Index (NDDI) methods. The SPI is used to determi...
