DRI:
Drought Research Initiative

Data

A critical aspect of DRI concerns the access to information regarding a wide variety of variables that can be used to characterize drought. Table 1 outlines a preliminary list of datasets that can be considered in the context of characterizing and quantifying drought. Table 2 is a modified version of Table 1, and includes an evolving list of data sources and links relevant to DRI; this table will be updated as DRI proceeds. Please refer to DRI's Data Access Policy for further information regarding data sharing and accessibility.

The following list provides access to datasets and various internet links to data sources:
