Analysis of the temporal relationship between meteorological drought and hydrological is crucial in monitoring water resource availability. This study examined linear lagged relationships spread to their joint effects on low-flow variability Oum Er-Rbia (OER) watershed. To this end, random forest (RF) model statistical methods were used characteristics indices at monthly, seasonal, annual scales. The various analyses revealed that mainly a function time scale considered, choice describe each type season considered. surface snow cover synchronized with In contrast, transition from groundwater has lag 1 month statistically significant up t − 5 + 5, i.e., 6 months. correlation rainfall deficit monthly storage index was lowest (0.15) December highest (0.83) March. suggests seasonal response cumulative precipitation deficits.

Drought is the most complex natural hazard that can occur over large spatial scales and during long time periods. It affects more people than any other hazard, particularly in areas with a dry climate, such as semiarid region of Brazilian Northeast (NEB), which world’s populated area. In this work, we analyzed trends distribution drought characteristics (frequency, affected area, intensity) based on Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) annual (SPI-12) seasonal (SPI-3) scales. The study used monthly precipitation data recorded between 1962 2012 at 133 meteorological stations Pernambuco State, Brazil, located eastern part NEB has 80% its territory characterized by climate. regions Sertão, Agreste, Zona da Mata were considered for comparison. Mann–Kendall Sen’s slope tests to detect trend determine magnitude, respectively. results indicated droughts state became frequent from 1990s onwards, summer having greatest coverage, followed winter, autumn, spring. Sertão presented greater number significant positive frequency. Regarding drought-affected global events occurred years an scale summer. Trend analysis pointed increase both As intensity, entire experienced high intensity autumn. relationship area result intensity.

Effective drought management requires precise measurement, but this is challenging due to the variety of indices and indicators, each with unique methods specific uses, limited ground data availability. This study utilizes remote sensing from 2001 2020 compute categorized as meteorological, agricultural, hydrological. A Gaussian kernel convolves these into a denoised, multi-band composite image. Further refinement enhances single index category: Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI), Soil Moisture Agricultural (SMADI), Streamflow (SDI). The enhanced index, encompassing all bands, serves predictor for classification regression tree (CART), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF) learning models, further improving three indices. CART demonstrated highest accuracy error minimization across categories, root mean square (RMSE) absolute (MAE) values between 0 0.4. RF ranked second, while SVM, though less reliable, achieved below 0.7. results show persistent in Sahel, North Africa, southwestern meteorological affecting 30% agricultural 22%, hydrological 21%.

Drought is typically divided into meteorological, agricultural, hydrological, and socioeconomic categories. Generally, the transition from meteorological drought to other types of droughts known as propagation. When propagation occurs, different may still exist simultaneously or successively. In this study, compound are three categories: hydrological (HMD), (MHD), simultaneous (SD). ERA5 CMIP6 data used for analysis under historical future scenarios. Different have emerged in extreme centers basins. Our indicates a significant upward trend duration these 1979 2022. Additionally, our projections SSP5-8.5 SSP2-4.5 suggest substantial increase occurrence various droughts. HMD, MHD SD all show consistent scenario above moderate-drought level.
