Monitoring agricultural and economic drought: the Australian Agricultural Drought Indicators (AADI)
Abstract. Drought events can have significant agricultural and economic impacts, and in many parts of the world their intensity appears to be increasing with climate change. However, drought measurement remains a highly contested space, with a multitude of indicators across both research and operational settings.
