Using CHIRPS Dataset to Assess Wet and Dry Conditions along the Semiarid Central-Western Argentina

Figure 6

Boxplot of the number of months with dry and wet conditions (SPInD and SPInW, respectively, with n = 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month timescale) for the SPI based on CHIRPS estimations (C) and rain gauges (RG) observations. Dry months were defined when SPI ≤ −1.0, and wet months were defined when SPI ≥1.0. Each boxplot shows the median and first and third quartiles, while the whiskers extend to the data values that are 1.5 times the interquartile range above or below the quartiles. Outliers are represented by.
