The characteristics of droughts that determine their severity and the regulatory measures required to provide protection against droughts depend to a large extent on the basic characteristics of meteorological and hydrological phenomena and to a large extent on the nature of operations that are affected by droughts. In irrigation applications, for example, severe droughts that occur during the nonirrigation seasons may be of minor significance, whereas moderate droughts during the irrigation seasons might be of critical consequences. Where the use of water is only a small fraction of the supply, long-duration droughts might be of minor consequences, whereas severe short-duration droughts could be critical. On the other hand, where use of water is high, long periods of carryover are necessary and short-duration droughts might not be critical. This paper examines the effects of droughts from the standpoint of differences in streamflow characteristics and differences in development and use. Particular attention is given to the regulatory requirements of reservoirs in relation to these factors. (Author).

Agricultural droughts affect whole societies, leading to higher food costs, threatened economies, and even famine. In order to mitigate such effects, researchers must first be able to monitor them, and then predict them; however no book currently focuses on accurate monitoring or prediction of these devastating kinds of droughts. To fill this void, the editors of Monitoring and Predicting Agricultural Drought have assembled a team of expert contributors from all continents to make a global study, describing biometeorological models and monitoring methods for agricultural droughts. These models and methods note the relationships between precipitation, soil moisture, and crop yields, using data gathered from conventional and remote sensing techniques. The coverage of the book includes probabilistic models and techniques used in America, Europe and the former USSR, Africa, Asia, and Australia, and it concludes with coverage of climate change and resultant shifts in agricultural productivity, drought early warning systems, and famine mitigation. This will be an essential collection for those who must advise governments or international organizations on the current scope, likelihood, and impact of agricultural droughts.
