  • If you are new to the concept of monitoring drought, “Drought Indices”, an NDMC white paper, will give you a good overview of the various kinds of drought indices and their uses. Three newer tools (the Standardized Precipitation Index, Drought Monitor, and Drought Impact Reporter) are highlighted below. Use this section also to explore the many monitoring tools available on the web for exploring current and historical drought occurrences.
