Deliverables/Products¶
The GDFC delivers relevant products, including continental drought and pluvial catalogues, global-scale drought and flood (pluvial and fluvial) risk maps, long-term meteorological and agricultural standardized indices, underlying meteorological forcings and land surface hydrological fluxes and states [Table 1].
