Estimation of drought indices in the Ichu river basin using data generated by remote sensing-Huancavelica-2019

Abstract

The objective of this research is to determine the estimate of drought indices using data generated by remote sensing. To reach the objective of the thesis, the applications used are: RStudio, ArcGIS, HYDRACCES and MINITAB 18. The present research work is of the Applied Non-Experimental type, because it seeks to contribute to the expansion of scientific knowledge in the evaluation of drought indices. . In general, different hydrological, ecological and agricultural systems respond to climatic droughts at different time scales. Therefore, the SPI and SPEI are calculated at time scales from 1 to 48 months, for this purpose the analysis of droughts in the Ichu river basin, which is made up of 5 homogeneous regions described above, where data from each region has been obtained. homogeneous, such as precipitation, minimum maximum temperature and longitude latitude with a monthly precipitation series (1994-2016) and with a monthly minimum maximum temperature series (1994-2015). In the present research work, the spatiotemporal variability was analyzed. of droughts in the Ichu river basin for the period from 1994 to 2016 using data generated by remote sensing (remote sensing).
