## Abstract This paper presents a framework for making use of drought indices in climate change impact assessment studies. To achieve this goal: (1) linear relationships between drought indices and satellite soil moisture information, derived from the ERS scatterometer [Soil Water Index, (SWI)] for
Assessing the impact of a given human-induced climatic change, like a global warming brought about by carbon dioxide, involves balanced examination of the implications of the specific environmental change and the other implications of the assumptions which generate the COz in the first place. There
A major task of our time is to ensure adequate food supplies for the world's current population (now nearing 7 billion) in a sustainable way while protecting the vital functions and biological diversity of the global environment. The task of providing for a growing population is likely to be even mo
