Construction and application of copula-based trivariate standardized river disconnection index for seasonal rivers in arid and semi-arid areas by Qingqing Qi, Zipeng Wang, Zezhong Zhang, Hang Yin, Hexin Lai, Yiyang Zhao, Fei Wang, Kai Feng

“…Optimal distribution functions vary across regions, times, and datasets; therefore, using the best monthly distribution functions to compute SRI, SGDI, and SSMI provides a more scientifically robust mathematical and statistical basis. (2) The SSRDI, which combines surface water, groundwater, and soil water, is more consistent with the actual hydrological conditions of Tabu River compared to the three univariate indices. (3) From 2002 to 2020, the SSRDI for Tabu River shows a continuous declining trend, albeit at a slowing rate. The overall pattern exhibits a cyclical trend of worsening followed by improvement, with June being the month of most severe ecological river disconnection. (4) The seasonal component of the SSRDI from 2002 to 2020 displays cyclical changes, with a mutation in June 2004. …”
