Benchmarking of Drought and Climate Indices for Agricultural Drought Monitoring in Argentina
Araneda-Cabrera, Ronnie J.; Bermúdez, María; Puertas, Jerónimo (Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Site-specific studies are required to identify suitable drought indices (DIs) for assessing and predicting drought-related impacts. This study presents a benchmark of eight DIs and 19 large-scale climate indices ...
