Assesment of meteorological drought in Bohemian-moravian highlands using Palmer drought indices
Original language description
As the climate change is underway, the frequency, intensity and duration of heat waves increase over Europe. Higher temperatures and heat waves episodes increase evaporation and thus intensify droughts when they occur. Recently, in the Czech Republic, increased global radiation and air temperature together with decreased relative humidity led to increases in the reference evapotranspiration in all months of the growing season. This is going to be a serious issue for agricultural production to deal within following years. First step in mitigating drought impacts is the definition of drought-threatened areas, by applying appropriate drought assessment indices. In this study we picked Palmer drought severity index (PDSI) to document the occurrence of drought episodes in the region of Bohemian-Moravian highland and illustrate its severity in recent years. Firstly, the PDSI was calculated based on long-term meteorological data and then applied on dataset from years 1961-2014 to identify dr
