Dryland ecosystems are highly vulnerable to increased aridity, thus exacerbating the drought stress. From this perspective, our study aimed to evaluate the aridity index (AI) and Standardized Precipitation Index at a three-month scale (SPI-3) across three arid stations of Pakistan from 1990 to 2023. Seven remote sensing indices were used as covariates with S…
