Introduction

Ø Drought is long term slowly occurring disaster iniDated as deficit of precipitaDon and high evapotranspiraDon. Ø ExponenDal populaDon growth has led to increased agriculture water demands manifold, especially over developing countries. Ø Several studies showed that drought reoccurrence intensity and frequency has increased over India in last decades or so (Mallaya et al., 2016). Ø The increase in global warming has increased the frequency of drought

  • ver South-Asia by increasing temperature and evaporaDon more

sunshine and low relaDve humidity (IPCC, AR5).

Ø To analyze the extreme precipitaDon variability over India. Ø To study the relaDonship between observaDon and model simulated precipitaDon variability focusing drought. Ø In the present study SPI and SPEI indices has been used to determine drought variability over the region.

Data

Ø We have taken the observaDonal gridded monthly rain fall data at 0.250 x 0.250 and Temperature dataset at 1.00 x 1.00 from 1951 to 2005 from Indian Meteorological Department (IMD). Ø CRU (Climate Research Unit)- University

  • f East Angelia precipitaDon data, for

the same period. Ø High resoluDon regional coupled model (ROM, Sein et al., 2015) data for temperature and PrecipitaDon at 0.440 x 0.440 (CORDEX South-Asia domain) for the same period.

Ø SPI (Standardized PrecipitaDon Index) and SPEI (Standardized precipitaDon EvapotranspiraDon Index ) indices has been used as the Indicator for drought studies. Ø SPI is the Probability density funcDon of cumulaDve precipitaDon climatology and calculated by method proposed by Mckee et al., 1993. Ø SPEI is the monthly difference between precipitaDon and PET and is calculated by method proposed Vicente-Serrano et al., 2010. Ø These both are mulD-scale indices and be\er to represent the intra-seasonal and inter-annual variaDon of drought over the region.

Conclusion

Ø There is no significance increase in precipitaDon since more than 50 years. Ø It is noDced that during monsoon season the dry spells are prolonged though the amount of rainfall is more or less close to long period average. Ø Model is able to represent the annual cycle interesDngly very well. The spaDal correlaDon is also reasonably well represented. Ø At longer Dme scale SPEI is showing a be\er drought inter-annual variability than SPI. Ø The short-term drought, SPEI (3, 6) is characterized by strong periodicity at quasi-biennial and decadal Dmescales.

Future Outlook

Ø ROM simulaDons results will be used to further understand the overall drought dynamics over South-Asia. Ø High-resoluDon (ROM) regional coupled model (CORDEX domain) simulaDons, using several RCP’s for the period 1950-2100 will be performed, to understand the future drought dynamics over South-Asia. Ø To develop drought factsheets with uncertainty assessment.
