英文摘要 | Spatiotemporal behaviors of meteorological droughts are basic for understanding the development and driving forces of droughts. Currently, there are a limited number of approaches mainly used to analyze the spatiotemporal evolution of large-scale soil moisture/hydrological drought events at global or continental scales. These behavior description approaches on the spatiotemporal dynamics of drought are not perfect and should be improved further. To this end, a new approach was proposed to investigate the migration of meteorological droughts based on topological spatial relations. It was used to identify drought clusters, migration trajectories, and migration directions of meteorological droughts. In the Poyang Lake basin (24 degrees 29' to 30 degrees 04'N, 113 degrees 34' to 118 degrees 28'E), China, monthly precipitation data were available from 1960 to 2007. The one-month standardized precipitation index was used to characterize meteorological droughts. The proposed approach identified a total of 77 drought events and 454 drought clusters during the study period. Their drought centroids were tracked and analyzed. The migration distances of drought events exhibited a significant linear relationship with the drought duration (R-2 > 0.8, slope of 165 km per month). More than 70% of drought events had a migrating displacement greater than 1 degrees (approximately 100 km). These results indicated that the meteorological drought events traveled actively and occurred on a widespread basis in the basin. Moreover, two main patterns of drought cluster migration (northward and southward) were identified. The approach and findings can provide some important implications to investigate the migration of meteorological droughts in other regions. |
