Standardized Water Budget Index and Validation in Drought Estimation of Haihe River Basin, North China

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2016
The physical-based drought indices such as the self-calibrated Palmer Drought Severity Index (sc-PDSI) with the fixed time scale is inadequate for the multiscalar drought assessment, and the multiscalar drought indices including Standardized ...

Field identification of drought tolerant wheat genotypes using canopy vegetation indices instead of plant physiological and biochemical traits

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Seasonal drought is a major limiting factor for wheat production in the North China Plain. The use of non-destructive screening tools based on vegetation indices associated with physiological and biochemical traits will help in the identification of ...

Review of Drought Characterization Indices

open access: yesSri Lankan Journal of Agriculture and Ecosystems, 2023
Planning and managing agricultural operations and water resource systems require an in-depth understanding of the drought phenomenon. Since the 1960s, scientists have introduced a significant variety of drought indices to characterize droughts. The purpose of the present study is to review drought concepts and to aware researchers and policymakers on ...

Responses of the Remote Sensing Drought Index with Soil Information to Meteorological and Agricultural Droughts in Southeastern Tibet

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The Temperature–Vegetation–Precipitation–Drought Index (TVPDI) has a good performance in drought monitoring in China. However, different regions have different responses to droughts due to terrain differences.
