Summary

Description
English: The goal of this project is to develop seasonal predictive capacity for the Drought Monitor-Decision Support System (DM-DSS), using Earth science models and satellite products. The DM-DSS was produced jointly by several national institutes, led by the National Drought Mitigation Center ( NDMC ) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The Monitor presents a single, easy-to-read color map that summarizes current information from numerous drought indices and indicators. The enhanced DM-DSS with a predictive capacity will allow society's response to a drought from a traditional "crisis management" scenario, which emphasizes emergency response, to a "risk management" approach, which places greater emphasis on preparedness planning and mitigation actions.
