Spatial and temporal analysis of drought in Manjalar sub-basin of Vaigai in Tamil Nadu using standardized precipitation index

Abstract: Drought is universally acknowledged as a phenomenon associated with scarcity of water. Drought characterization is essential for drought management operations. Using drought indices is a pragmatic way to assimilate large amounts of data into quantitative information that can be used in applications such as drought forecasting, declaring drought levels, contingency planning and impact assessment. Using monthly mean precipitation data for a period of 1982-2012 from 12 raingauge stations in the Manjalar sub-basin… Show more

“…Drought assessment is usually performed using drought indices, which can allow the transformation of large amounts of data into quantitative information required for several applications, such as precise forecasting of drought, reporting drought levels, and planning contingency (Janapriya et al, 2016). Over 150 drought indices have been introduced by various researchers worldwide (Alahacoon & Edirisinghe, 2022).…”

“…Accordingly, this study recommended that ARIMA models can be very useful tools for drought forecasting that can help water resources managers and planners to take precautions considering the severity of drought in advance. Janapriya et al (2016) conducted a spatial and temporal analysis of drought in Manjalur sub basin of Vaigai in Tamil Nadu using SPI. The SPI was calculated by using monthly mean precipitation data from 1982 to 2012.…”
