Developing an Impact-Based Combined Drought Index for Monitoring Crop Yield Anomalies in the Upper Blue Nile Basin, Ethiopia (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This thesis proposes an impact-based combined drought index (CDI) and a regression prediction model of crop yield anomalies for the Upper Blue Nile basin in Ethiopia. It shows to be effective in indicating historic drought events in the Upper Blue Nile, and could potentially be used in the future development of drought monitoring.
