Understanding eca_cdd Consecutive Dry Days

Added by Saurabh Bhardwaj almost 12 years ago

Hello,

Just a quick query about eca_cdd. If I have a 6 day daily data with each day having Rainfall<1mm, then will eca_cdd give me 2 dry days event?

Meaning, in a 6 day data, cdd will calculate 2 cdd events?

I ask this because in a 122 day (June July Aug Sept) daily data i'm getting around 39-40 frequency of cdd events, which is only possible in case the events are overlapping.

I thank you in advance for the help.

Regards,
SB
