Description

Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index calculated over 12-month water-year periods to quantify drought severity, incorporating both precipitation and temperature effects on water balance.

Typical Equipment

  • R package SPEI
  • PRISM climate data

Output Measurements

  • water-year drought severity
  • summer drought severity
