- Abstract
The article reports that drought prediction is important for strategic planning agriculture and water management. The occurrence of droughts cannot be predicted with certainty and must be treated as a random variable. A new concept of drought is developed which features assessments based on triple drought related hydrometeorological and metereological variables which include rainfall, solar irradiation and sunshine duration. The features of drought behavior variation is presented in the triple graphical method approach.
