A Multidecadal Assessment of Drought Intensification in the Middle East and North Africa: The Role of Global Warming and Rainfall Deficit by Ahmed El Kenawy (7510103)

“…Spatially, the SPEI highlighted significant drought intensification in temperate and cold desert (CWb, BWk) zones across the region, primarily driven by increasing air temperatures. On the other hand, SPI tended to capture well the mild and moderate drought events, while it underestimated the severity of the most anomalous dry events (i.e., severe, extreme, and very extreme). …”
