Drought in South Asia affect food and water security and pose challenges for millions of people. For policy-making, planning, and management of water resources at sub-basin or administrative levels, high-resolution datasets of precipitation and air temperature are required in near-real time. We develop a high-resolution (0.05°) bias-corrected precipitation and temperature data that can be used ...

Drought observation and analysis have a significant impact on lives properties. This research aims to identify the drought trend with its spatiotemporal distribution in seven climatic zones of Bangladesh. Mann-Kendall test Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) were used phenomenon visualized by Inverse Distance Weighting Interpolation. The findings demonstrate substantial declining for short-t...

The 2011 East Africa drought caused dire situations across several countries and led to a widespread and costly famine in the region. Numerous dynamic and statistical drought prediction models have been used for providing drought information and/or early warning. The concept of Ensemble Streamflow Prediction (ESP) has been successfully applied to univariate drought indicators (e.g., the Standar...
