Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Groundwater Drought and Its Response to Meteorological Drought in Jiangsu Province, China
In this study, the temporal and spatial variations of groundwater drought using a Standardized Groundwater Level Index (SGI) were analyzed based on 40 monthly groundwater level observation wells from 1989 to 2012 in Jiangsu Province, China. Meteorological drought, calculated by the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), was also included to reveal its propagation and impact on the groundwater ...
متن کاملDecline in alkali meadow vegetation cover in California: the effects of groundwater extraction and drought
1. Throughout arid regions of the world, groundwater is extracted for human population centres. In the Great Basin and Range region of the USA, we lack basic information regarding some plant communities detailing the extent to which vegetation is threatened by groundwater extraction. This is particularly true for alkali meadow vegetation, which is restricted to zones of shallow groundwater yet ...
متن کاملPropagation of drought through groundwater systems : illustrated in the Pang (UK) and Upper-Guadiana (ES) catchments
Peters, E., 2003. Propagation of drought through groundwater systems Illustrated in the Pang (UK) and Upper-Guadiana (ES) catchments. Ph.D. thesis, Wageningen University, The Netherlands. 203 pp. The transformation of droughts as a result of the propagation through groundwater systems is examined by comparing droughts in time series of groundwater recharge, levels and discharge. The groundwater...
متن کاملEstimating the Impact of Drought on Groundwater Resources of the Marshall Islands
Groundwater resources of small coral islands are threatened due to short-term and long-term changes in climate. A significant short-term threat is El Niño events, which typically induce a severe months-long drought for many atoll nations in the western and central Pacific regions that exhausts rainwater supply and necessitates the use of groundwater. This study quantifies fresh groundwater reso...
متن کاملA Global Grassland Drought Index (GDI) Product: Algorithm and Validation
Existing drought indices have been widely used to monitor meteorological drought and agricultural drought; however, few of them are focus on drought monitoring for grassland regions. This study presented a new drought index, the Grassland Drought Index (GDI), for monitoring drought conditions in global grassland regions. These regions are vital for the environment and human society but suscepti...
