The extreme drought episode of August 2011-May 2012 in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The weather conditions from August 2011 to May 2012 produced an extreme drought in the eastern Czech Republic (Moravia), whereas the patterns were nearly normal in its western region (Bohemia). The Southern and Central Moravia regions, which represent the most important agricultural areas, were most affected by the drought. The precipitation totals for the studied period were 50-70% of the long-term mean, which was calculated for 1961-2000. In autumn 2011, the total precipitation accounted for 10-30% ofthe long-term mean for most of Moravia, increasing to 30-50% in spring 2012. Moreover, 7.5% of the Czech Republic experienced a 100-year drought; 20% of the country experienced a 20-year drought. According to the Palmer Drought Severity Index, the 2012drought was classified as the worst in the past 130years. The drought patterns were related to the prevailing high-pressure systems over Central Europe and the occurrence of weather types with different precipitation amounts in Bohemia an
