On the use of satellite, gauge, and reanalysis precipitation products for drought studies

Precipitation is a critical variable to monitor and predict meteorological drought. The WMO recommended standardized precipitation index (SPI) is calculated from gauge (i.e. GPCC), satellite-gauge (GPCP, CHIRPS), reanalysis (i.e. ERA-Interim, and MERRA-2), and satellite-gauge-reanalysis (i.e. MSWEP)...
