Benchmarking of drought and climate indices for agricultural drought monitoring in Argentina

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2021
Site-specific studies are required to identify suitable drought indices (DIs) for assessing and predicting drought-related impacts. This study presents a benchmark of eight DIs and 19 large-scale climate indices (CIs) to monitor agricultural drought in Argentina.
