Analyzing the impact of agricultural drought on meteorological drought within Pakistan’s Upper Indus, Kabul, and Jhelum River Basins by Chang, J., Hussain, A., Kai, Z., Yang, G., Zhang, L.

“…In this paper, the Mann-Kendall approach was employed to identify the mutation changes for long-term agricultural and meteorological drought conditions at annual and seasonal time scales Palmer drought severity index (scPDSI) and standard precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) during 1970–2016 in the upper Indus, Kabul and Jhelum River basins. The wavelet coherence is further used to assess the relationship between meteorological and agricultural drought and the large-scale mechanisms. …”

Metrics assessment and streamflow modeling under changing climate in a data-scarce heterogeneous region: a case study of the Kabul River Basin by Akhtar, F., Borgemeister, C., Tischbein, B., Awan, Usman Khalid

“…Due to many uncertainties in hydrological data and modeling, the findings are frequently regarded as unreliable, especially in heterogeneous catchments such as the Kabul River Basin (KRB). Besides, statistical methods to assess the performance of the models have also been called into doubt in several studies. …”
