Abstract. Drought is one of the natural crises in each region. Drought has a direct relationship with vegetation. Various factors affect vegetation. The relationship between these factors and vegetation can be expressed using methods of machine learning algorithms. Nowadays, using remote sensing images can be used to measure the factors affecting vegetation and investigate this phenomenon with high precision. In this research, vegetation and various factors affecting this factor, which can be measured using satellite imagery, are selected. The factors include land surface temperature (LST), evapotranspiration (ET), snow cover, rainfall, soil moisture that which are derived from the active and passive sensors of satellite sensors as the products of land surface temperature (LST), snow cover and vegetation, using images of products of the MODIS sensor and rainfall using the images of the TRMM satellite and soil moisture using the images of the SMOS satellite during a period from June 2010 to the end of 2018 for the central region of Iran has received and after that, primary processing was performed on these images. The vegetation index (NDVI) is modeled using artificial neural network algorithm for monthly periods. method have been able to achieve model with desirable accuracy. The average accuracy was RMSE = 0.048 and R2 = 0.867.

Drought Monitoring

Various drought indices have been used for agricultural drought monitoring, such as Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), Soil Water Deficit Index (SWDI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Vegetation Health Index (VHI), Vegetation Drought Response Index (VegDRI), and Scaled Drought Condition Index (SDCI). They incorporate such factors as rainfall, land surface temperature (LST), potential evapotranspiration (PET), soil moisture content (SM), and vegetation index to express the meteorological and agricultural aspects of drought. However, these five factors should be combined more comprehensively and reasonably to explain better the dryness/wetness of land surface and the association with crop yield. This study aims to develop the Integrated Crop Drought Index (ICDI) by combining the weather factors (rainfall and LST), hydrological factors (PET and SM), and a vegetation factor (enhanced vegetation index (EVI)) to better express the wet/dry state of land surface and healthy/unhealthy state of vegetation together. The study area was the State of Illinois, a key region of the U.S. Corn Belt, and the quantification and analysis of the droughts were conducted on a county scale for 2004–2019. The performance of the ICDI was evaluated through the comparisons with SDCI and VegDRI, which are the representative drought index in terms of the composite of the dryness and vegetation elements. The ICDI properly expressed both the dry and wet trend of the land surface and described the state of the agricultural drought accompanied by yield damage. The ICDI had higher positive correlations with the corn yields than SDCI and VegDRI during the crucial growth period from June to August for 2004–2019, which means that the ICDI could reflect the agricultural drought well in terms of the dryness/wetness of land surface and the association with crop yield. Future work should examine the other factors for ICDI, such as locality, crop type, and the anthropogenic impacts, on drought. It is expected that the ICDI can be a viable option for agricultural drought monitoring and yield management.
