Fig 2. Trends in observed precipitation and Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI).

(A) trends from version 2020 of the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCCv2020), (B) trends from the “self-calibrated” PDSI dataset from Dai [18], (C) trends from the Climatic Research Unit version TSv 4.01 (CRU TSv.4.01), and (D) “self-calibrated” PDSI dataset from van der Schrier et al. [147]. The trends were calculated over a common period from 1950–2018. While GPCC and CRU precipitation datasets indicate similar patterns in their trends, the PDSI datasets differ in their trends, but most importantly in their magnitudes. In addition to using different input climate data, those PDSI data sets use different calibration periods. For example, the CRU PDSI product uses the whole period (i.e., 1901–2021), and Dai PDSI uses 1950–2000. This Figure was made with Natural Earth.
