Quantifying agricultural drought in the Koshi River basin through soil moisture simulation by Prabhat Banjara, Pallav Kumar Shrestha, Vishnu Prasad Pandey, Manisha Sah, Prajjwal Panday

“…Study focus: The mesoscale hydrological model (mHM) is applied to assess the historical spatio-temporal hazard of agricultural drought using soil moisture index (SMI) in the KoRiB. New hydrological insights for the region: The research indicates that KoRiB was most severely impacted by drought from 1976 to 2000, with the two major droughts occurring in 1982–1989 and 1991–1996. …”
