Abstract: In this study, an index, named as standardized precipitation anomaly index (SPAI), is proposed for the meteorological drought quantification in the context of the monsoon-dominated climatology, where the precipitation is ...

Abstract: In this paper, a hydrometeorological approach to the probabilistic simulation of soil moisture is proposed. The time series of in situ soil moisture and meteorological variables at a monthly scale from different monitoring ...

Abstract: Precipitation estimates from Doppler weather radar (DWR) provide much better spatial resolution as compared to rain gauges and are therefore becoming more popular in hydrological applications. However, traditional estimates ...

Abstract: This study borrows the measures developed for the operation of water resources systems as a means of characterizing droughts in a given region. It is argued that the common approach of assessing drought using a univariate ...
