Using GIS and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for flood hazard assessment based on morphological and hydrological criteria, case of the Meknes region, Morocco by Essahlaoui Narjisse, Ijlil Safae, Alitane Abdennabi, Mohajane Meriame, El Ouali Abdelhadi, Rhazi Abdelaziz, Oumou Abdellah, Alouane Ayoub, Ammari Zakaria, Khrabcha Abdelali, El Hafyani Mohamed, Essahlaoui Ali, Aouragh My Hachem, Van Rompaey Anton

“…This hazard is assessed by taking into account morphological criteria (slope, altitude, density of the hydrographic network, curvature) and hydrological criteria (drainage density, stream power index (SPI) and rainfall data). The methodology adopted is essentially based on a multicriteria analysis using analytical hierarchy process (AHP), with the use of GIS tools and satellite data. …”

Interpreting seasonal droughts over the Yangtze River Basin utilizing anomalies of local-scale atmospheric circulation by Hao Yin, Zhiyong Wu, Hai He

“…An Explainable Artificial Intelligence framework was then applied to assess the influence of these local-scale factors on the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI3) at the grid scale. New hydrological insights for the region: Low-level specific humidity significantly influences drought conditions in the northern middle and lower reaches, while mid-level vertical velocity is the dominant factor in the southern middle and lower reaches. …”

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Drought Characteristics in Song-Liao River Basin in China by Xiaojing Shen, Xu Wu, Xinmin Xie, Zhenzhen Ma, Meijian Yang

“…The results revealed that (1) the drought happening probability and degree are rising and the affected areas of all degrees of drought have an increasing trend during the last 50 years; (2) there is a climate abrupt change which occurred in around 1994, and the area with declining SPEI is larger than that with declining SPI, which could be due to the rising temperature after the climate abrupt change; (3) all degrees of drought occurrence probability increased, and the intensive drought occurrence regions altered from the northern SLRB to the southwestern SLRB after the climate abrupt change; (4) the drought duration increased from 1994, and the increased drought durations occurred in most parts of SLRB.…”
