Abstract: Droughts significantly affect India’s agricultural sector and overall economic growth in dry, arid, and semi-arid regions. Around 50% of crop areas depend on the south-west monsoon, making them vulnerable to deficient ...

Abstract: This paper demonstrates a procedure for deriving the

Abstract: Drought occurs across all climates worldwide, but has different impacts from one region to another. Because water is the most basic of human needs, drought and water shortage can result in severe socioeconomic difficulties ...

Abstract: The adequacy of existing water supply depends on a number of factors. These factors include water demand and its variations over time, the amount of water supplied on average, and the nature and types of the water supply ...

Abstract: This study borrows the measures developed for the operation of water resources systems as a means of characterizing droughts in a given region. It is argued that the common approach of assessing drought using a univariate ...

Abstract: General circulation models (GCMs) use transient climate simulations to predict climate conditions in the future. Coarse-grid resolutions and process uncertainties necessitate the use of downscaling models to simulate ...

Abstract: Cyanobacterial blooms are expected to be more frequent over time as more favorable environmental conditions are created in a warming climate. This study proposes strategies to effectively mitigate/reduce the concentration ...

Abstract: The rainfall threshold (RT) method is a nonstructural flood mitigation approach that is emerging as an effective flood forecasting tool. A critical RT value is the minimum cumulative rainfall depth necessary to cause ...
