Abstract
Investigate two aspects of drought prediction. Reanalysis data are used to separate the roles of precipitation and evapotranspiration anomalies in rapidly developing drought, explicitly considering soil-moisture state. A second analysis connects initial soil moisture with streamflow forecast skill from weather to seasonal timescales and examines the influence of precipitation processing.
