What is mean by droughts
Answers
Explanation:
A drought is a period of time when an area or region experiences below-normal precipitation. The lack of adequate precipitation, either rain or snow, can cause reduced soil moisture or groundwater, diminished stream flow, crop damage, and a general water shortage.
A drought is a phenomenon of continued shortages in the water supply, whether atmospheric, superficial water or soil water.
A drought can remain for months or years, or may be notified after as few as 15 days. It can have a considerable impact on the ecosystem and agribusiness of the affected province and harm to the regional economy.
Annual waterless seasons in the tropical significantly increase the chances of a drought creating and succeeding bush fires. Periods of heat can significantly deepen drought conditions by pushing evaporation of water vapour.
