DOI: 10.1002/2017gl073871
Abstract: The limitation of the fixed time scale in the Palmer drought severity index (PDSI) family has long been criticized in drought literatures. By modifying the algorithm of duration factors estimation of the self-calibrating PDSI (SC-PDSI),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jd026867
Abstract: Seasonal pluvial-drought transition processes are unique natural phenomena. To explore possible mechanisms, we considered Southwest China (SWC) as the study region and comprehensively investigated the temporal evolution or spatial patterns of large-scale and regional atmospheric… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1589
Abstract: PREMISE Due to climate change, more frequent and intense periodic droughts are predicted to increasingly pose major challenges to the persistence of plant populations. When a severe drought occurs over a broad geographical region, independent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16002
Abstract: PREMISE Changes in climate can impose selection on populations and may lead to rapid evolution. One such climatic stress is drought, which plant populations may respond to with escape (rapid growth and early flowering) or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/bab.2458
Abstract: Salinity and drought are significant abiotic stresses causing a considerable loss of seed and biomass yield in most commercial crops. Some of the most critical players in the ABA pathway are Drought Response Element Binding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/csc2.21290
Abstract: Efforts toward the development of common bean varieties that can perform better under the drought conditions in Eastern Africa are constrained by significant genotype–environment–management (G × E × M) interactions. To address this, an attempt was made previously to… read more here.
