Dynamic assessment of the impact of drought on agricultural yield and scale-dependent return periods over large geographic regions ?
A Drought Risk Analysis System for daily evaluating and predicting large-scale drought-induced yield losses during the 2012 U.S. drought. Detailed information available for the crop water-stresses processes, biomass development, and uncertainties of drought impacts. Dynamic and scale-dependent drought return periods according to yield losses demonstrated in the case study of Liaoning, China. Remotely sensed data provided essential information for mapping and verifying the drought-affected areas.
