2012 Midwest Drought in the United States

Mallya, G., Zhao, L., Song, X. C., Niyogi, D., Govindaraju, R. S.·2013·Journal of Hydrologic Engineering

Abstract

The 2012 North American drought may be the costliest and one of the most widespread natural disasters in U.S. history [USDA Economic Research Service (USDA-ERS) 2012]. While several states across the United States were experiencing drought conditions to varying degrees of severity, the Midwest and Northern Plains were perhaps the most affected. The drought severely impacted agricultural activities across the United States, particularly corn and soybean crops, prompting federal agencies including U.S. Department of Agriculture to declare disaster areas (USDA 2012b) and to provide assistance to those affected by this calamity. This paper utilizes existing and new techniques to provide insights into the severity of the 2012 Midwest drought and its impacts over the region.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
