Brazil Drought Monitor

The Brazil Drought Monitor is a tool that continuously monitors the severity of droughts in the country. This monitoring is based on climate indicators and the impacts caused by the phenomenon in both the short and long term. The program publishes a monthly map showing the drought situation in the different federal units of the previous month. This map uses a color scale to indicate the degree of severity of the drought, which can be: severe, moderate, severe, extreme or exceptional.
