Understanding the spatio-temporal structure and persistence of meteorological droughts is critical for climate risk assessment, particularly in regions with pronounced climatic gradients. Here, we present the first appli...

Drought is a slow-onset natural disaster that has far-reaching effects on agriculture, water security, and socio-economic systems, especially in climate-vulnerable countries such as Malaysia. It is imperative to predict ...

Abstract Background Drought intensity and frequency are increasing under global warming in the boreal forests, and breeding for drought resistance will facilitate adaptation of new planting material to changing climate c...

Drought–flood abrupt alternation (DFAA) events, characterized by rapid transitions between drought and flood conditions, pose severe challenges to agricultural production, water resource management, and infrastructure ...

Abstract Psammochloa villosa is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to tribe Stipeae (Poaceae). It is mainly distributed in the arid and sandy Inner Mongolia Plateau and adjacent areas, demonstrating remarkable resili...

Abstract Eastern Himalayan Region (EHR), where rice is an important staple crop, developing drought stress tolerant varieties is crucial for improving yield and stability in variable climates. Genotype-by-environment (GE...

Rapid urbanization in Africa, particularly in Greater Cairo, Egypt, and Nairobi, Kenya, has significantly contributed to environmental change through increased Land Surface Temperature (LST) and the intensification of th...

Drought is a common phenomenon that affects more people within the context of Africa than any other disaster. Likewise, drought is an extreme and common occurrence within the lowland areas of Chipinge district in Zimbabw...

Soil moisture drought (SMD) critically constrains terrestrial ecosystems and agricultural productivity, yet the long-term contribution of historical land use and land cover change (LULCC) to global drought trends remains...

Against the background of global climate change, increasingly severe drought stress exerts a significant impact on plant growth and yield. This study aimed to clarify the leaf anatomical structure, physiology and biochem...

Abstract Melissa officinalis, commonly known as lemon balm, is vulnerable to drought stress and pathogenic diseases, including those caused by Fusarium species, which can significantly affect the plant’s growth and yie...

Climate change–driven drought increasingly threatens water security and community resilience in climate-sensitive watersheds like the Bicol River Basin (BRB) in the Philippines, highlighting the urgent need for sustain...

IntroductionUnder current climate change conditions, agronomic yield is compromised by limited water availability and sudden drought events throughout the plant cycle. Among the tools to overcome drought stress, benefici...

Under the dual impacts of global climate change and human activities, drought disasters in the Inner Mongolia grassland are a critical constraint on the high-quality development of animal husbandry. Based on disaster sys...

Drought threatens ecosystem resilience in the fragile karst rocky desertification zone of Southwest China. Based on meteorological observations from 1992 to 2022, this study assessed drought dynamics using the Reconnaiss...

Shallots (Allium cepa L.) is a plant that requires sufficient water and is susceptible to drought stress. The use of biofertilizer is employed because it contains microorganisms to enhance nutrient availability and assis...

Abstract Extreme heatwaves and droughts pose critical threats to global water, food, and socioeconomic security. However, comprehensive understanding of their spatiotemporal dynamics, underlying drivers, and cascading im...

Abstract Background Cycas panzhihuaensis, as a national first-class protected plant, has long been threatened by dual high-temperature and drought stress. Photosynthesis is a key target of dual high-temperature and droug...

Climate change-induced shocks, particularly drought, are more prevalent and causing drastic changes in farming and livelihood in the Barind Tract region of Bangladesh. Therefore, this study aims to identify drought shock...

Stalk-lodging and drought are major constraints limiting maize productivity. We previously characterized B73 as stalk-lodging resistant but drought-sensitive maize inbred, while EA2024 is stalk-lodging susceptible and dr...

Abstract Climate change poses significant threats to agricultural production and livelihoods in Bangladesh, particularly in its agrarian regions. This research specifically addresses the vulnerability of the coastal area...

In this study, the effects of salinity (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mM NaCl) and drought stress on the germination and seedling development of five Cynodon dactylon genotypes (A, B, C, D, and Gobi), collected from dif...

Climate change-induced weather extremes are increasing the intensity and frequency of disturbance events, posing a major threat to forests globally. In Central Europe, hotter and drier summers, such as those during the 2...

Abstract Background The use of biostimulants in agriculture has shown fabulous potential in combating climate change induced stresses such as drought. Improving agricultural productivity requires sustainable drought stre...
