Yet to date, the response of ecosystems during flash drought events, particularly on a large scale, and the determinants of the ecosystem responses to flash droughts have been underexplored.

Recovery time, the time it takes for ecosystems to return to normal states after experiencing droughts, is critical for assessing the response of ecosystems to droughts; however, the spatial dominant factors determining recovery time are poorly understood.
