| Abstract: |
| The standardized precipitation index (SPI) was used to calculate monthly drought indices in the recent 49 yrs (from 1958—2007) with precipitation date from meteorological station in Yuncheng district Shanxi Province. Annual and seasonal drought frequency and intensity in southern Shanxi were analyzed with the SPI. The results showed that the drought frequency and drought intensity characteristics varied annually. Drought frequency showed an increasing trend, but drought intensity showed decreasing trends after 1990s. Drought in spring and summer was frequent, but it was not common in autumn and winter. Spring (March to May) and midsummer (July～August) drought can be relieved with integrated drought-preventing techniques, due to its predictability. |
