Propagation from meteorological to hydrological drought in the Horn of Africa using both standardized and threshold-based indices [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 There have been numerous drought propagation studies in data-rich countries, but not much has been done for data-poor regions (such as the Horn of Africa, HOA). In this study, we characterize meteorological, soil moisture and hydrological drought and the
