drought indices are commonly used to quantify and assess drought characteristics. the standardized precipitation index (spi), and recently introduced standardized precipitation-evapotranspiration index (spei) are considered as universal meteorological drought indices which allow comparisons of drought conditions across different climate regions. the spi captures anomalies in precipitation, wher...

Global warming has resulted in increasingly frequent and severe drought and/or precipitation events. Severe drought limits crop water availability and impacts agricultural productivity and socioeconomic development. To quantify drought-induced yield loss during the main crop stages in Liaoning province, China, aspects of drought episodes (magnitude, duration, and frequency) were investigated du...

The Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of China (Ningxia) is an important food production area in northwest China severely affected by drought. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) were calculated based on monthly meteorological data to explore climate change and variation in drought intensity, duration, frequency, and spatial exte...

The goal of this study is to calculate meteorological drought using the Standard Precipitation Index (SPI) and Evapotranspiration (SPEI) for Al-Lith Khafji basins Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA) from 2001 2020. in situ (rain gauges, RGs) Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals GPM (IMERG) data are used current study. monitored across AL-Lith watersheds. climate watershed like some extent. Still, due c...

Abstract In this research, SPEI (standardized precipitation and evaporation index) was used as an alternative index to SPI to study drought in warm southern coastal regions of Iran. Drought has a multi-scale nature that can be analyzed in time scales via analysis of precipitation and temperature data. Therefore, data were colected from 105 synoptic stations in Iran in 2015; Respective stati...

Su kaynakları planlaması ve yönetiminde kuraklığın tanımlanması, izlenmesi karakterizasyonu büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Samsun kent merkezinde bulunan 17030 no’lu meteoroloji istasyonundan 1938-2020 dönemi için aylık yağış verileri Standart Yağış İndeksi (SPI) ile Standartlaştırılmış Evapotranspirasyon (SPEI) kullanılarak kuraklık analizi yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın ilk kısmında, iklim d...

Prediction of potential evapotranspiration (PET) using an artificial neural network (ANN) with a different architecture is not uncommon. Most researchers select the optimal statistical indicators. However, there still gap to be filled in future applications various drought indices and assessment location, duration, average, maximum minimum. The objective was compare performance PET computed ANN...
