Hot Days (temp > 35°C)
Counts extreme heat days affecting crops, livestock, and human health.
Heat
Wet Season Dryness Index (WSDI)
Counts the number of days that belong to a warm spell, reflecting sustained extreme-heat events.
Heat
Maximum Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT)
Maximum Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Measures the combined heat-stress effects of temperature, humidity, solar radiation and wind to indicate when conditions for agricultural labor may become hazardous.
Drought
Diurnal Temperature Range
Daily temperature swings affect crop stress and disease pressure, key for yield prediction.
Heat
Very Hot Days
Calculates the percentage of days when the daily maximum temperature exceeds historically very hot days.
Heat
Mean Daily Temp (°C)
Average daily temperatures over the growing season.
Heat
Max 5-Day Rainfall
Captures short episodes of intense rainfall that can drive flooding and soil erosion.
Rainfall
Rainfall on Extremely Wet Days
Measures the proportion of total annual rainfall occurring on extremely wet days.
Rainfall
Simple Daily Intensity
Measures rainfall intensity on wet days, identifying erosion and runoff risks.
Rainfall
Rainfall Coefficient of Variation (%)
Measures interannual rainfall variability which affects planning for planting, irrigation and drought preparedness
Rainfall
Total Precipitation
Overall water availability crucial for crop planning and irrigation needs.
Rainfall
Start of Season (day of year)
Season onset is the first day of the year when rainfall has reliably started to capture when farmers can safely plant.
Rainfall
Length of Rainy Season (days)
Measures the number of days between the onset and cessation of the rainy season.
Water
Consecutive Dry Days (CDD)
Tracks longest dry spells to identify drought risk, critical for germination and planting windows.
Drought
3-month Standard Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index
Short-term drought index tracking water balance stress over critical planting periods.
