Overview

Evaluates drought trends in Morocco, revealing increasing drought stress and suggesting the need for better water management.

Key Points

  • The aim is to assess long-term drought trends in Morocco using satellite data to inform water management strategies.
  • Analysis of MODIS-Terra satellite data from 2003 to 2023
  • Evaluation of evapotranspiration, leaf area index, and normalized difference vegetation index
  • Focus on Rabat-Salé-Kénitra and Casablanca-Settat regions
  • Upward trend observed in evapotranspiration (ET)
  • Fluctuating leaf area index (LAI) trends
  • Decline in normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) indicating increased drought stress
