Fig. 7: Transitions of drought regimes with the drought termination.

From: Increased dependency of regional drought termination on landfalling tropical cyclones

Fig. 7

Subplots a, c–f show the probability density distribution of SPI values of the first and second months of NoTC-DT (blue) and TC-DT (red) events for global and four hotspots (a, c–f). NoTC-DT and TC-DT events are shorted for the drought termination events caused by no-high TC precipitation and high TC rainfall, respectively. Subplot b shows the spatial distribution of the number of NoTC-DT and TC-DT events. Results are derived from SPI-12 using CMORPH precipitation dataset.
