The flash drought has gained widespread attention as a result of its rapid onset with severe impacts. However, a comprehensive assessment of different flash droughts based on various modulators is not carried out over India to date. Here, we attempt to answer the following research questions, (i) What is the status of different flash drought events...
As a widespread natural hazard, droughts impact several aspects of human society adversely. Thus, the present study aims to answer the following research questions; (i) What are the expected variabilities in different drought conditions over India in the future? (ii) How the population exposure to drought varies under different climate change and p...
The agricultural drought significantly affects the socio-economic sectors in the agrarian country like India. Though there is a larger variability in the drought characteristics, the time to propagation from meteorological to agricultural drought is not investigated at regional scale in India. The Standardised Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index...
Understanding the devastating nature of drought, this work has assessed the variability in the Severity-Area-Frequency (SAF) curve using Standardised Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) as meteorological drought indicator over Maharashtra, India. The future meteorological outputs from 19 Global Circulation Models (GCMs) of the NASA Earth...
Assessing the risk on agricultural system is important for agricultural sustainability. The present study analyses the agricultural drought risk with respect to different drought severities. Different drought indices namely SPEI, SSI, VCI and TCI are used to evaluate the conditional probability. The non-stationary analysis is carried out for SPEI a...
As a costliest natural hazard, drought profoundly affects water resources, agriculture, and socio-economic sectors in India. In spite of large spatio-temporal variability in droughts, the propagation time from meteorological to hydrological droughts is not examined at local scale over India. In this study, the meteorological and hydrological variab...
The present study aims to answer the following two research questions using the future outputs from 19 GCMs of the novel NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections (NEX‐GDDP) under two Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios. (a) What will be the possible variability of future meteorological drought properties...
In the persisting climate change scenario, it is of great concern to revisit, rethink, and improve the existing computational aspects of the drought indices. In general, the commonly used drought indices do not encompass environmental changes. Hence, the primary objective of this study is to incorporate the large-scale climatic oscillations in deve...
