Future Changes in Drought Frequency Due To Changes in the Mean and Shape of the PDSI Probability Density Function Under RCP4.5 Scenario

This study investigates the changes in the drought frequency in 2070–2099 relative to 1970–1999, due to the mean and shape changes of the probability density function (PDF) of the self-calibrated Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), using CMIP5 multi-model historical simulations and projections und...
