Evaluating Probability Distribution Functions for the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index over Ethiopia

Evaluating Probability Distribution Functions for the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index over Ethiopia

Drought indices are used to identify and monitor drought events. The standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) is a widely used index based on accumulated water balance. There is, however, no broad consensus on which probability distribution is the most appropriate for water balance...
