Potential of long-term satellite observations and reanalysis products for characterising soil drying: trends and drought events by M. Hirschi, P. Stradiotti, B. Crezee, B. Crezee, W. Dorigo, S. I. Seneviratne

“…Furthermore, we investigate the impact of the products' trend representation on their ability to capture major seasonal soil moisture (or agroecological) drought events as a use case. The latter is based on the analysis of 17 selected drought events documented in the scientific literature; these events are characterised by their severity (the time-accumulated standardised soil moisture anomalies), magnitude (the minimum of the standardised anomalies over time), duration, and spatial extent.…”
