     abstract = "{To more precisely monitor drought, a new remote sensing-based drought
        index, the Vapor Pressure Deficit{\textendash}Soil
        Moisture{\textendash}Sun-Induced Chlorophyll fluorescence
        Dryness Index (VMFDI), with a spatial resolution of 1 km based
        on vapor pressure deficit (VPD), soil moisture (SM), and sun-
        induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) data was constructed via
        a three-dimensional spatial distance model, and it was used to
        monitor dryness in the Yellow River Basin during
        2003{\textendash}2020. The spatiotemporal variations in and main
        factors of the VMFDI and agroecosystem responses were analyzed
        via the Theil{\textendash}Sen median and
        Mann{\textendash}Kendall tests and Liang{\textendash}Kleeman
        information flow. The results revealed the following: (1) The
        VMFDI effectively monitors regional drought and is more
        sensitive than other indices like the standardized precipitation
        evapotranspiration index (SPEI) and GRACE drought severity index
        and single variables. (2) VMFDI values fluctuated seasonally in
        the Yellow River Basin, peaking in August and reaching their
        lowest in March. The basin becomes drier in winter but wetter in
        spring, summer, and autumn, with the middle and lower reaches,
        particularly Shaanxi and Gansu, being drought-prone. The VMFDI
        values in the agroecosystem were lower. (3) SM and VPD dominated
        drought at the watershed and agroecosystem scales, respectively.
        Key agroecosystem indicators, including greenness (NDVI), gross
        primary productivity (GPP), water use efficiency (WUE), and leaf
        area index (LAI), were negatively correlated with drought (p <
        0.05). When VPD exceeded a threshold range of
        7.11{\textendash}7.17 ha, the relationships between these
        indicators and VPD shifted from positive to negative. The
        specific VPD thresholds in maize and wheat systems were
        8.03{\textendash}8.57 ha and 7.15 ha, respectively. Suggestions
        for drought risk management were also provided. This study
        provides a new method and high-resolution data for accurately
        monitoring drought, which can aid in mitigating agricultural
        drought risks and promoting high-quality agricultural
        development.}",
