A New Perspective on Terrestrial Hydrologic Intensity That Incorporates Atmospheric Water Demand

Abstract Hydrologic intensity is often quantified using precipitation without directly incorporating atmospheric water demand. We develop a hydrologic intensity index called the surplus deficit intensity (SDI) index that accounts for variation in supply and demand. SDI is the standardized sum of sta...
