USING GIS TOOL FOR PRESENTING SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF DROUGHT
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2020 By using GIS tools, it is possible to improve the preview of hydrological processes such as evapotranspiration, precipitation, flood and drought. In order to quantify drought, different type of drought indicators have been developed such as Standardized ...

Precipitation thresholds for drought recognition: a further use of the standardized precipitation index, SPI [PDF]
WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 2013 Most of the methods used to analyse drought episodes include drought indices associated with quantitative scales and which are based upon instrumental variables, with particular emphasis for precipitation. Among such indices, one of the most common indices, if not the most widely used, is the standardized precipitation index (SPI), which assigns a ...

Predicting Standardized Streamflow index for hydrological drought using machine learning models
Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2020 Hydrological droughts are characterized based on their duration, severity, and magnitude. Among the most critical factors, precipitation, evapotranspiration, and runoff are essential in modeling the droughts. In this study, three indices of drought, i.e.
