Wetland mitigation functions on hydrological droughts: From drought characteristics to propagation of meteorological droughts to hydrological droughts [PDF]
Journal of Hydrology, 2023 Wetlands have been singled out as a potential nature-based solution for improving the resilience and reducing the risks of hydrometeorological extremes. However, whether and to what extent wetlands can affect hydrological droughts is not well understood.

Is a drought a drought in grasslands? Productivity responses to different types of drought
Oecologia, 2021Drought, defined as a marked deficiency of precipitation relative to normal, occurs as periods of below-average precipitation or complete failure of precipitation inputs, and can be limited to a single season or prolonged over multiple years. Grasslands are typically quite sensitive to drought, but there can be substantial variability in the magnitude ...

The Climatology of Droughts and Drought Prediction
1988This section reviews some aspects of the climate of NEB (Northeast Brazil, i.e., the “Nordeste”), focusing in Subsection 2.2 on rainfall, its interannual variability and the mechanisms that produce rain. Subsection 2.3 provides a short review of the state of the art of drought prediction for NEB.

DROUGHT; INFLUENCE OF DROUGHT IN AGRICULTURE AND MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES FOR DROUGHT-A REVIEW
Asian Journal of Microbiology, Biotechnology & Environmental Sciences, 2023Drought is one of the major stress factors affecting the growth and development of plants. In this context, drought-related losses of crop plant productivity impede sustainable agriculture all over the world. In general, plants respond to water deficits by multiple physiological and metabolic adaptations at the molecular, cellular, and organism levels.

Plant Growth Regulation, 1996
Drought tolerance is a nebulous term that becomes more nebulous the more closely we look at it, much as a newspaper photograph does when viewed through a magnifying glass. From the vantage point of an ecologist the features that distinguish xerophytic from mesophytic vegetation are clear.

Scores of definitions of drought exist, reflecting different applications and regions of con-cern. Common to all types of drought is the fact that they originate from a deficiency of precipitation that results in water shortage for some activity (e.g., plant growth, transpor-tation) or some group (e.g., farmer, water suppliers).

Public Health, 1978
Episodes of diarrhoea and vomiting were monitored at schools in two areas affected by water restrictions during the drought of 1976 and compared with records from schools in an adjacent unaffected area. Evidence was obtained of a possible association between restrictions in water supply and gastro-intestinal disturbances. It is suggested that outbreaks

Drought in groundwater—drought distribution and performance indicators
Journal of Hydrology, 2005In order to investigate how droughts are changed by the groundwater system and to analyse the performance of groundwater during drought, 10 time series of 1000 years of recharge and groundwater discharge were generated. The 10!1000 years of synthetic daily data were generated using Nearest Neighbour resampling based on 37 years of observed daily ...

Proteomic responses of drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive cotton varieties to drought stress
Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2016Drought, one of the most widespread factors reducing agricultural crop productivity, affects biological processes such as development, architecture, flowering and senescence. Although protein analysis techniques and genome sequencing have made facilitated the proteomic study of cotton, information on genetic differences associated with proteomic ...
