Northeast Brazil Drought Monitor

The Drought Monitor is a process of regular and periodic monitoring of the drought situation in the Northeast, whose consolidated results are disseminated through the Drought Monitor Map. Monthly information on the drought situation is made available until the previous month, with indicators that reflect the short term (last 3, 4 and 6 months) and the long term (last 12, 18 and 24 months), indicating the evolution of the drought in the region.
