Variabilité spatio-temporelle des séquences sèches en France depuis 1950

This work proposes the study of spatial and temporal variability of rainfall droughts (no rain) on the scale of metropolitan France since the 1950s and for each of the four seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter). A dry period approach makes it possible to understand the intrinsic spatio-temporal c...
