Summary
In this chapter, we focus on the copula applications to at-site bivariate/trivariate drought analysis. In a case study, drought variables are separated from long-term daily streamflow series, i.e., drought severity, drought duration, drought interarrival time, and maximum drought intensity. Drought severity and duration are applied for bivariate drought frequency analysis. Drought severity, duration, and maximum intensity are applied for trivariate drought frequency analysis. The Archimedean, meta-elliptical, and vine copulas are adopted for the bivariate/trivariate analyses. The case study shows that the copula approach may be properly applied for drought analysis.
