Here is Aiguo Dai's (National Center for Atomospheric Research) 2010 drought research updated in 2012, showing drought projections through the end of the century. It is the near-term maps up to mid-century that are dreadfully worrisome, given the amount of time one can assume it would take to transition an entire global economy from it's fossil-fuel foundation to a renewable economy. James Hanson expresses concern that large-scale multi-country multi-year droughts would create many millions of climate refuges and could make the globe "ungovernable."
