Monthy precipitation in percent of average\t<\/td>Prec%<\/td>

Total precipitation in percentage of average is based on the formula: P(%)= Total current precipitation\/long term (1981-2010) average of precipitation X 100<\/p><\/td>

Standardized Precipitation Index <\/td>SPI<\/td>

The SPI is a statistical monthly indicator that compares the cumulated precipitation during a period of n months with the long-term cumulated precipitation distribution for the same location and accumulation period<\/p><\/td>

Soil moisture anomaly<\/td>SMA<\/td>

The soil moisture product has been chosen for agricultural drought monitoring. It is estimated through atmospheric\/hydrological models. Soil moisture anomaly is the difference between current value and long term average (1981-2010).<\/p><\/td>
