Concise description:
The indicator is based in five levels; “Watch” when a relevant precipitation shortage is observed, “Warning” when this precipitation shortage translates into a soil moisture anomaly, “Alert” when these two conditions are accompanied by a negative anomaly in the vegetation condition, “Partial recovery” when the meteorological conditions are recovered to normal but not the vegetation - 3 - conditions, “Full recovery” when meteorological and vegetation normal conditions are recovered after a drought episode.
