Abstract Drought is an anomaly from normal climatic conditions, which affects most of the zones worldwide. monitoring a very crucial step to detect drought vulnerable and raise awareness about future development. The present study aimed investigate efficiency indicators: standardized precipitation index (SPI) Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) spatially description conditions Babylon gove...

Drought analysis via the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Evapotranspiration (SPEI) is necessary for effective water resource management in Sarawak, Malaysia. Rainfall best indicator of a drought, but temperature also significant because it controls evaporation condensation. This study examined drought periods state Sarawak using SPI SPEI based on monthly precipitation data from thirt...

Implementation of adequate measures to assess and monitor droughts is recognized as a major matter challenging researchers involved in water resources management. The objective of this study is to assess the hydrologic drought characteristics from the historical rainfall records of Kuwait with arid environment by employing the criterion of Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI). A wide range of...

With the global climate change, drought disasters occur frequently. Drought prediction is an important content for drought disaster management, planning and management of water resource systems of a river basin. In this study, a short-term drought prediction model based on deep belief networks DBNs is proposed to predict the time series of different time-scale standardized precipitation index S...

Different drought indices often provide different diagnoses of drought severity, making it difficult to determine the best way to evaluate these different drought monitoring results. Additionally, the ability of a newly proposed drought index, the Process-based Accumulated Drought Index (PADI) has not yet been tested in United States. In this study, we quantified the severity of 2012 drought wh...

Drought observation and analysis have a significant impact on lives properties. This research aims to identify the drought trend with its spatiotemporal distribution in seven climatic zones of Bangladesh. Mann-Kendall test Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) were used phenomenon visualized by Inverse Distance Weighting Interpolation. The findings demonstrate substantial declining for short-t...

A meteorological drought study is performed using monthly time scale data from three separate locations in southern Sindh, Pakistan. Rainfall and temperature have been used to identify the drought. These were transformed into indices known as standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) (SPI), which derived (the Hargreaves equation). In this study, two are compared for stations Ch...
