Özet
Drought has emerged as one of the most significant environmental issues faced in the twenty- first century because of its direct link with climatic variations, land use changes by humans, and the growing demand for natural resources. Land use
change and climate interaction have greatly increased the occurrence, intensity, and duration of droughts worldwide through deforestation, urbanization, intensified agriculture, and depletion of groundwater resources. This paper covers
different forms of drought, such as meteorological, agricultural, hydrological, and socioeconomic droughts, along with the key climatic factors leading to droughts, such as ENSO variations, monsoon changes, atmospheric circulation anomalies,
and global warming. The focus of the discussion is on land- atmospheric coupling processes and the impact of land use and land cover changes on regional climate regulation. New techniques for drought assessment based on remote sensing, GIS,
artificial intelligence, machine learning, climate modeling, and Internet of Things technologies have been introduced.
