Do the recent severe droughts in the Amazonia have the same period of length? [PDF]
, 2015 We propose a new measure based on drought period length to assess the temporal difference between the recent two severe droughts of 2005 and 2010 in the Amazonia.

Water use efficiency of China\u27s terrestrial ecosystems and responses to drought [PDF]
, 2015 Water use efficiency (WUE) measures the trade-off between carbon gain and water loss of terrestrial ecosystems, and better understanding its dynamics and controlling factors is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change.

Effects of drought on hay and feed grain prices
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Droughts represent a severe and increasing risk for the livestock sector as they can reduce yields of hay and feed grain. Droughts are predicted to increase in frequency and magnitude under climate change. Here we estimate the so far unexplored effect of

Key Note: Living with droughts? [PDF]
, 2008 The Netherlands Center for River Research (NCR) in its first 10 years of existence has focused its activities on flooding. Climate change might cause that droughts will become as important as or even more important than floods.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Bacterial α‐diversity decreases, but stochasticity and community stability increase across the 15 m‐depth vertical profiles and along the degraded gradient within the active layer. The abundance and interaction of core taxa mainly control community stability in the active and permafrost layers, respectively.

Quantifying the impact of climate change on drought regimes using the Standardised Precipitation Index [PDF]
, 2015 The study presents a methodology to characterise short- or long-term drought events, designed to aid understanding of how climate change may affect future risk.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Water scarcity poses a critical threat to global food security. A low‐power, flexible electromagnetic actuator is presented for smart drip irrigation systems. The device achieves precise, wide‐range flow modulation (0.05–5.8 mL/min) in response to real‐time plant demands, reducing water consumption compared to conventional flood irrigation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies a novel thermoregulatory mechanism in rice: TOGR3 partners with 26S proteasome subunits, including TT1, to drive thermoresponsive ubiquitin–proteasome activity, maintaining sugar homeostasis in stomatal regulation to balance growth and stress resistance.
