<p>SPEI1_int describes the peak intensity of 1-month drought conditions. It is defined as the minimum SPEI1 value over a year or a season.</p>
<p>SPEI1 gives a measure of the surface water balance (i.e., the difference between precipitation and potential evapotranspiration) over a period of one month relative to the long-term average. SPEI1 values around 0 indicate normal conditions, while values below -1 indicate deficit conditions (e.g., -1 corresponds to a deficit of one standard deviation). SPEI1 values for the current period are derived from the daily SPEI dataset produced by the (<a href="https://www.alpine-space.eu/project/ado/">ADO project</a>) adopting 1981-2020 as calibration period and Penman-Monteith equation for the potential evapotranspiration calculation. The monthly SPEI1 values are derived by retaining the last SPEI1 entry of each month. For future projections, the potential evapotranspiration used for SPEI calculation is estimated from minimum and maximum temperature based on the Hargreaves equation, while the calibration period is based on GWL 0.61 °C. Further details on data and SPEI calculation are available in “About the data”. Unit: 1</p>
