DROUGHTS AND FLOODS: NUMBERS AND FACTS
• 95% of all affected people by
floods and droughts are in Asia
• Floods and droughts account for about 90% of all people affected by all natural disasters
• Frequency and intensity of these events increases with changing climate
• Annual damages may rise to over 400 bill USD globally by 2030
Deaths and People Affected – by 100,000 inhabitants (1974-2005)

MONITORING AND FORECASTING
-Drought severity -by deviation of a drought parameter from normal condition
-Simple or composite parameters /indices
-Normal condition – from historical data

SOUTH ASIA DROUGHT MONITORING SYSTEM (DMS):
Builds on existing expertise in drought monitoring in Asia
Will feature near-real time, weekly high-spatial resolution information on drought
severity online
Will integrate remote sensing and ground data for better drought
characterisation (vegetation indices, rainfall, soil, etc),
Aims to supports regionally coordinated drought mitigation efforts that can be
further tailored to analysis at the national level
Needs to deliver timely and targeted messages to main economics sectors and
communities that trigger certain anti-drought action(s) by decision makers
Needs to be continuously maintained and hence needs a business model.
