Twenty‐First Century Drought Projections in the CMIP6 Forcing Scenarios

Earth's Future, 2020
There is strong evidence that climate change will increase drought risk and severity, but these conclusions depend on the regions, seasons, and drought metrics being considered.

Optimizing crop management strategies for improved yield, water productivity, and sustainability of quinoa in shallow basaltic semi-arid regions

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionRecently, quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has gained global recognition as a nutritious, adaptable crop suitable to adverse soil and climatic conditions. However, knowledge about optimal management practices for its cultivation in marginal

Tools for agricultural drought detection in the frame of Drought Management Centre for Southeastern Europe – DMCSEE

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2012
Numerous specialized indices have been proposed to assess drought severity, but the precise quantification of drought is a difficult challenge. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate two indices: the well known Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI ...

Harnessing rhizosphere microbiomes for drought-resilient crop production

Science, 2020
Root-associated microbes can improve plant growth, and they offer the potential to increase crop resilience to future drought. Although our understanding of the complex feedbacks between plant and microbial responses to drought is advancing, most of our ...

Domestic well vulnerability to drought duration and unsustainable groundwater management in California's Central Valley [PDF]

, 2020
Millions of Californians access drinking water via domestic wells, which are vulnerable to drought and unsustainable groundwater management. Groundwater overdraft and the possibility of longer drought duration under climate change threatens domestic well

Soil bacterial networks are less stable under drought than fungal networks

Nature Communications, 2018
Soil microbial communities play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning, but it is unknown how co-occurrence networks within these communities respond to disturbances such as climate extremes. This represents an important knowledge gap because changes in

Transcriptomic analysis of field-droughted sorghum from seedling to maturity reveals biotic and metabolic responses. [PDF]

, 2019
Drought is the most important environmental stress limiting crop yields. The C4 cereal sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a critical food, forage, and emerging bioenergy crop that is notably drought-tolerant.
