Measure description

Underlying hydrological data-sets have been evaluated and described by Beck, H. E., van Dijk, A. I. J. M., de Roo, A., Dutra, E., Fink, G., Orth, R., and Schellekens, J.: Global evaluation of runoff from 10 state-of-the-art hydrological models, Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci., 21, 2881-2903, https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-21-2881-2017 , 2017. Performance of drought indicators is being tested by a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. A paper describing the results of this evaluation is currently in preparation.

Concise description:

Global-scale drought indicators developed as part of the E2O project. Estimated drought values are based on the inputs of different global (hydrological) models: W3RA (CSIRO/ANU), HTESSEL (ECMWF), LISFLOOD (JRC), WaterGAP (university Kassel), PCR-GLOBWB (Utrecht University), SURFEX-TRIP (meteo France). Eacht of these models was forced with WFD-EI. Time-series that was used to estimate the drought values was 1980-2012. Due to differences in accumulation time-period, actual drought values between 1983-2012 were provided only. Drought values are calculated for: SPI, SPEI, SRI, SSFI, and SSMI. Each with accumulation times of 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months.
