1 black box in the August map), the U.S. drought monitor maps show drying conditions rapidly intensify between July and August and diminish in September. Over the same timeframe, the PDSI shows weak increases, and SVDI_NLDAS, SPEI, and EDDI show a rapid increase, peak, and rapid ...
The map was created using ArcGIS 10.2 (ESRI Inc., Redlands, California, USA). Full size image Temporal variation of drought based on mTVDI in China from 1982 to 2010 In order to analyze the temporal pattern of droughts in China during the past decades, the number of occurrence of all ...

Drought map of U.S. for June 7, 2016 (6/7/16) plus: U.S. crop areas experiencing drought (map), Approximate percentage of crop located in drought, by state (bar graph), Percent of crop area located in drought, past 52 weeks (line graph) for: Corn, Soybeans, Hay, Cattle, Winter...
Drought is the major constraint to increase yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum). Improving drought tolerance is therefore of outmost importance for breeding. However, the complexity of the trait allowed only marginal progress. A solution to the current s
The temporal and spatial features of drought provided by MODIS indices were compared with maps of the USA Drought Monitor (USDM), the current advanced tool for drought monitoring. The rapid intensification of drought across the Corn Belt in 2012 summer captured by MODIS index anomalies agreed with...
The transcriptome databank produced in this study enabled the development of 2325 SSR primer pairs of which 214 showed to be polymorphic between the two species. These new markers will enrich the current reference AA diploid Arachis map [19] and other Arachis tetraploid maps under construction. In...

we first spatially interpolated soil map at the 0.05° resolution into the 5-min arc (0.083°) resolution using the inverse distance weighted averaging method to have the common resolution with the harvested area map in 2000 (ref.47). The interpolated data were aggregated to represent average le...
