This paper aims to offer an improved version of the new composite drought monitoring index (CDMI) and to test its applicability in the context of Tensift watershed in Morocco. A synergistic approach incorporating the remote sensing techniques, hydrometeorological data, simulated data and agricultural statistics was used for this purpose. After...
This article reviews the main recent applications of multi-sensor remote sensing and Artificial Intelligence techniques in multivariate modelling of agricultural drought. The study focused mainly on three fundamental aspects, namely descriptive modelling, predictive modelling, and spatial modelling of expected risks and vulnerability to...
In this chapter, a per-pixel trend analysis approach and the temporal variance of drought risk were used to compare the seasonal dynamics of the multivariate risk level of agricultural drought in two hydrological systems (Tensift and Moulouya watersheds in Morocco). The multivariate risk level is calculated from the time series of the enhanced...
Several drought indices are commonly used to quantify the severity and magnitude of agricultural drought. A comprehensive assessment of temporal and spatial convergences is important. This study evaluates the spatio-temporal concordances of eight drought indices, between October and April, over the period 2003 to 2021 under the semi-arid...

Climate extremes and their trends in several parts of the world have exacerbated the biophysical susceptibility of agrosystems in semiarid regions. In the Sahel region, this is reflected in a gradual deterioration in the climatic resilience of agrosystems and their ecosystem productivity, with potential losses in cereal yields of up to 27% by...
Agricultural drought is a complex phenomenon with numerous consequences and negative implications for agriculture and food systems. The Sahel is frequently affected by severe droughts, leading to significant losses in agricultural yields. Consequently, assessing vulnerability to agricultural drought is essential for strengthening early warning...

This manuscript aims to develop a new multivariate composite index for monitoring agricultural drought. To achieve this, the AVHRR, VIIRS, CHIRPS data series over a period of 40 years, rainfall and crop yield data as references were used. Variables include parameters for vegetative stress (SVCI, PV, SMN), water stress (PCI, RDI, NRDI), and heat...
