Response of vegetation to drought time-scales across global land biomes

Sergio M. Vicente-Serrano, +13 more
- 02 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is found that arid biomes respond to drought at short time-scales; that is, there is a rapid vegetation reaction as soon as water deficits below normal conditions occur, and that the response of vegetation to drought depends on characteristic drought time- scales for each biome.

Performance of Drought Indices for Ecological, Agricultural, and Hydrological Applications

Sergio M. Vicente-Serrano, +8 more
- 26 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of different drought indices for monitoring drought impacts on several hydrological, agricultural, and ecological response variables was evaluated. And the authors found that the SPEI was the index that best captured the responses of the assessed variables to drought in summer, the seas...

Evidence of increasing drought severity caused by temperature rise in southern Europe

Sergio M. Vicente-Serrano, +11 more
- 01 Apr 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used high quality climate data from ground meteorological stations in the Iberian Peninsula (IP) and robust drought indices to confirm that drought severity has increased in the past five decades, as a consequence of greater atmospheric evaporative demand resulting from temperature rise.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iberia winter rainfall trends based upon changes in teleconnection and circulation patterns

Joan-Albert Lopez-Bustins, +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a daily objective synoptic classification by means of a principal components analysis (PCA) using sea-level pressure (SLP) data was carried out to better understand Iberian winter precipitation trends.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dimming/brightening over the Iberian Peninsula: Trends in sunshine duration and cloud cover and their relations with atmospheric circulation

Arturo Sanchez-Lorenzo, +3 more
- 27 May 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the spatial and temporal changes in SunDu and total cloud cover over the Iberian Peninsula (IP) and four subregions during 1961-2004 using high-quality, homogenized data sets.
