Predicting the risk and trigger thresholds for propagation of meteorological droughts to agricultural droughts in China based on Copula-Bayesian model

Agricultural Water Management
Meteorological droughts are propagated through atmospheric and hydrological cycles, ultimately triggering agricultural droughts. Accurate prediction of future meteorological to agricultural drought propagation is essential for developing early warning ...

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Development of a random-forest-copula-factorial analysis (RFCFA) method for predicting propagation between meteorological and hydrological drought

National Science Open
In the context of global climate warming, the propagation of meteorological drought (MD) may aggravate the devastating impact of hydrological drought (HD) on water security and sustainable development.

The effect of reservoir networks on drought propagation

, 2017
Human interventions in response to drought can both alleviate and enhance drought. Developments of infrastructure for freshwater storage, groundwater abstraction and irrigation have proved to be effective in overcoming meteorological and agricultural drought in many locations worldwide.

Issue Construals and Corporate Water Stewardship

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the face of mounting environmental and social pressures, the importance of responsible corporate water stewardship (CWS) should be evident, yet not all businesses are taking water management issues seriously. The aim of this study is to explore why differences in CWS persist, especially within industries facing similar resource challenges ...

Characteristics of Drought Propagation from Meteorological to Hydrological Drought Using Sensor-Based Drought Indices

Journal of the Korean Society of Hazard Mitigation
Sustained meteorological drought can lead to hydrological drought, which is known as drought propagation. Propagated drought events are more devastating than non-propagated events. Therefore, investigating their propagation characteristics is critical.
