Drought is the most complex of the recurrent extreme weather events and is defined as a natural disaster with severe environmental, economic, and agricultural impacts resulting from a significant decrease in the average rainfall recorded in an area and the average rainfall recorded in the same place. Droughts have become more frequent and severe in many parts of the world, including Türkiye, due to global warming and climate change (increasing temperatures and changing precipitation patterns). Water resources and the agricultural sector are most severely affected by droughts. In this study, drought analyses of the Burdur Basin, located in the Aegean region, one of Türkiye's seven geographical regions, were carried out. For drought analysis, annual average total precipitation, annual maximum temperature, annual minimum temperature, and annual average temperature data of 17238 Burdur and 17892 Tefenni meteorological observation stations were used. Both meteorological and agricultural drought analyzes are included in the analysis of droughts. Standard Precipitation Index (SPI) and Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI) methods were used to determine meteorological and agricultural drought, respectively. SPI and RDI values were obtained for 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month time periods, and the severity, size, and distribution of dry and humid periods were determined for both stations separately. When the results of both methods were examined, severe droughts were observed in the study area in 1973, 1978, 1981, and 2017.
