Worsening drought of Nile basin under shift in atmospheric circulation, stronger ENSO and Indian Ocean dipole

Abstract Until now, driving mechanisms behind recurring droughts and hydroclimate variations that controls the Nile River Basin (NRB) remains poorly understood. Our results show significant hydroclimatic changes that contributed to recent increasing aridity of NRB since the 1970s. Besides climate wa...
