Land surface vegetation dynamics are strongly affected by drought. Thus, understanding the
responses of vegetation to drought can inform measures to increase biome stability. In this …

This study assessed the impacts of climate change in IMP by investigating vegetation
responses drought in multiple timescales. Methods used included the Normalized Difference …

The threshold level method for drought identification is challenging due to the problems of
selection of drought index reflecting the drought process associated with water supply and …

The assessment and diagnosis of agricultural drought vulnerability is the basis for the
scientific control and prevention of agricultural drought risk. In order to quantitatively …

Risk management is an effective way to mitigate the adverse consequences of extreme
events, and plays an important role in climate change adaptation. On the basis of the …

Climate change may make extreme droughts more frequent with heavy economic losses in
China. Thus, this study aims to evaluate China's regional vulnerability to drought and …

As a major agricultural country, China suffers from severe meteorological drought almost
every year. Previous studies have applied a single threshold to identify the onset of drought …

Variations of wetness/dryness across China during 1949–2014 in both space and time were
investigated using the grid climate data of Time-Series (TS) Version 3.23. The Standardized …

The general approach to drought regionalisation regards the multi-year average values of
drought indexes as regionalisation indicators, without taking long-term variability into …

This study is to identify the major methods used by local farmers to adapt to the drought
hazard and to examine factors influencing their decisions to adapt in Yongqiao District …
