A prototype global drought information system based on multiple land surface models
Nijssen, B.Shukla, S.Lin, C.Gao, HZhou, T.IshottamaSheffield, J.Wood, E. F.Lettenmaier, D. P.
The implementation of a multimodel drought monitoring system is described, which provides near-real-time estimates of surface moisture storage for the...
Due to the diminishing Coriolis force towards the equator, the equatorial zone is known to be cyclone-free. However, on 27th December 2001, a tropical...
Response of vegetation to drought time-scales across global land biomes
