Short Summary

This paper aims to investigate the influences of climatic factors, particularly drought, on vegetation degradation and soil moisture dynamics, highlighting the increasing global challenges posed by climate change.

Objective

• To analyze the relationship between climatic influences (e.g., precipitation patterns, temperature, drought) and their impact on vegetation degradation and soil moisture.
• To understand the mechanisms through which climate change exacerbates drought conditions and subsequently affects natural resources and ecosystems.

Study Configuration

• Spatial Scale: Not specified in the provided text.
• Temporal Scale: Not specified in the provided text.

Methodology and Data

• Models used: Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) is mentioned as a common index for drought measurement.
• Data sources: Not specified for this study in the provided text.
