Meteorological and hydrological drought monitoring using several drought indices

Abstract: With respect to the necessity of comprehensive studies on drought and also high damages that caused by drought, this research studied the meteorological and hydrological droughts. In this study, Lighvan, Navroud and Seqez basins with different climates were selected. We used monthly data of stream flow, precipitation and evaporation from 1992 to 2016 for the study of drought phenomena. The aim at this study is to analyze the SPI and SPEI for determination of dry and wet meteorological periods and use of the SS… Show more

“…Strong correlations between meteorological and hydrological droughts were confirmed in short accumulation periods of 1-2 months by Vicente-Serrano and López-Moreno [51] for small rivers in the Mediterranean region, as well as selected regions of China [52]. In the catchments of rivers located in semi-arid and arid zones, the highest correlations between droughts were obtained with a delay of 3-4 months [53]. The greatest correlation strength was most common in small mountain catchments.…”

“…Babaeian et al (2021) introduced a combination of adaptation pathway (AP) approaches that were used in conjunction with the SWAT model to evaluate the resilience of adaptation measures and design robust adaptation pathways taking into account the future climate uncertainty in the Hablehroud River Basin. Salimi et al (2021) studied about effects of CC on hydrological and meteorological droughts. They used Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), SPEI and Standard Stream flow Index (SSI) in the Navrood and Lighvan watersheds in north of Iran and observed high correlation between hydrological and meteorological droughts.…”

“…In that sense, the occurrence of a drought is only statistically-based and not reflecting a true water deficit for the demand, only a below average situation (which is, however, in line with formal definitions of drought). In arid and semi-arid climates with lower levels of precipitation, it is recommended to use SPI cautiously because it can fail to indicate drought occurrence (Wu et al, 2007) and opt instead for indices that include evapotranspiration like the SPEI (Salimi et al, 2021). In such areas where evapotranspiration plays a larger role with regard to evaporative demand, water shortage is more common.…”
