Droughts in the Czech Lands, 1090?2012 AD
Original language description
This paper addresses droughts in the Czech Lands in 1090-2012 AD based on documentary and instrumental data. Various documentary sources were employed for the selection of drought events, which were then interpreted at a monthly level. The analysis concentrates on droughts after 1500 AD. A dry year in 1501-1804 was defined as a calendar year in the course of which dry patterns occurred on at least two consecutive months. Using this definition, 129 dry years were identified (an average of one drought per2.4 yr). From the 16th to the 18th centuries these figures become 41, 36 and 49 yr respectively, with the prevailing occurrence of dry months from April to September (73.7 %). Drought indices - SPEI-1, Z-index and PDSI - calculated for the Czech Lands for April-September describe drought patterns between 1805 and 2012 (the instrumental period). N-year recurrence intervals were calculated for each of the three indices. Using N >= 5 yr, SPEI-1 indicates 40 drought years, Z-index 39 yr
