The Westerly Index as complementary indicator of the North Atlantic oscillation in explaining drought variability across Europe

43 páginas, 1 tabla, 9 figuras This paper analyses the influence of different atmospheric circulation indices on the multi-scalar drought variability across Europe by using the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI). The monthly circulation indices used in this study include the...
