Standardised indices to monitor energy droughts

open access: yesRenewable Energy, 2022
To mitigate the effects of climate change, energy systems are becoming increasingly reliant on renewable energy sources. Since these energy sources are typically dependent on the prevailing weather, renewable energy systems are susceptible to shortages during certain weather conditions. As renewable sources become larger contributors to the energy mix,

A New Drought Index Study that Takes into Account a Multi-timescale and the Effects of Evapotranspiration——Taking Yunnan as an Example

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang, 2022
Based on the response of a multiscale drought index to soil moisture and the drought-affected crop area, this study constructed a new composite-index DI that consists of a short time scale (the last 30 days) relative to the Humidity Index (MI30 ...

Hydro-information system for drought monitoring [PDF]

open access: yesFacta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2012
Drought is a natural hazard caused by the variability in climate, which cannot be prevented. However, its effects can be reduced through management systems incorporating drought monitoring. The main aim of this paper is the presentation of information

Flash Drought Characteristics Based on U.S. Drought Monitor [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Understanding the characteristics of flash drought events and further predicting the onset of such events on subseasonal timescales is of critical importance for impact assessment, disaster mitigation, and loss prevention. In this study, we employ a rate-of-change approach and define a flash drought event as a drought event with greater than or equal ...
