Drought Monitoring

    Drought is one of the most complex disasters so that its definition is not clear to quantify. We are working on a new drought monitoring method and drought index depending on the user’s interests, which drought type the user wants to see under the consideration of multi-dependent variables with continental scales.

  • This new method and its indices were compared with existing drought indices across the contiguous United States and East Asia.

  • VPIDinte is our primary purpose of reflecting general drought conditions from multi-dependent variables of which target drought type is from meteorological to hydrological drought.
