Note: Drought impact is defined as the % of the country’s territory where vegetation productivity in 2025 did not recover to the 2000-2020 baseline condition due to drought. Non-recovery is identified where vegetation anomalies remain below −0.5 standard deviation within areas exposed to drought. Further methodological details are provided in the supporting information. See more under the supporting information section.
