Vegetation response to droughts: The case of northern Italy

Alice Baronetti,
Matia Menichini,
Antonello Provenzale

Abstract: Drought is a normal and recurrent climate feature, but one of the most important climate hazards that can produce negative effects on natural and socioeconomic systems. The northern part of Italy is historically rich in water resources and a very fertile and productive area. Recently, however, drought events increased their influence on the hydrological behaviour of the main rivers in this region. In this work, we analyse the spatial distribution of drought events and their effects on vegetation greenness in n… Show more

“…The already mentioned SPI and SPEI, applied for meteorological drought monitoring, are used in [19], and the AI (Aridity Index) is applied in [26] to assess the impacts of drought on crops. Agricultural drought indices such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) are used by [27], while indicators employed for the detection of hydrological drought, as the river discharge and the water level are used in many works (as for example [22,23]), together with the Standardized Annual Streamflow (SAS) reconstructed by [5]. The Snow Water Equivalent is applied by [18] to evaluate the anomaly in snow and thus detect the contribution given by the lack of snow to the drought conditions.…”

“…Ref. [27] evaluated the vegetation response to drought and discovered that in the Po area the vegetation types with the stronger response to droughts are those that are highly perturbed by agriculture, while herbaceous communities and woods are less sensitive and recovered rapidly after a drought.
