Monitoring and predicting agricultural drought: a global study
A team of expert contributors from all continents to made a global study, describing biometeorological models and monitoring methods for agricultural droughts. These models and methods note the relationships between precipitation, soil moisture and crop yields, using data gathered from conventional and remote sensing techniques. The coverage of the book includes probabilistic models and techniques developed in the Americas, Europe and the former USSR, Africa, Asia, and Australia, and it concludes with coverage of climate change and resultant shifts in agricultural productivity, drought early warning systems, and famine mitigation. This will be an essential collection for those who must advise governments or international organizations on the current scope, likelihood, and impact of agricultural droughts.
