description [EN] Northeast Mexico is well known for having dry climate; nevertheless, agriculture and livestock stand among the top economic activities of the state. For the last 24 years, Tamaulipas has been struck by numerous meteorological droughts which have caused financial losses in the country. This work studied meteorological drought in Tamaulipas through remote sensing techniques and IMERG satellite imagery for accumulated precipitation for 2000-2023 period. Downloaded IMERG images were projected to WGS 84/ UTM14N, cropped in the shape of Tamaulipas and processed to compute the Precipitation Condition Index (PCI). As a method of validating, the Pearson Lineal Correlation was calculated for PCI results and Standardized Precipitation Index for one (SPI-1) and three (SPI-3) months. Six years are clearly identified as meteorological drought years: 2000, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2022 and 2023. Results obtained by PCI show drought events that match the dry years identified by the SPI. Furthermore, dry years are closely related to the low-activity annual tropical cyclone season in the Gulf of Mexico. PCI and SPI-1 in the northern region showed the best correlation between them (r=0.87), while the worst correlation was found between PCI and SPI-3 in the southern region (r=0.44), from which it is concluded that PCI is a meteorological drought index capable and adequate for monitoring meteorological drought in Tamaulipas and in similar weather conditions.

En los últimos 24 años, Tamaulipas se ha visto afectado por numerosos eventos de sequías que han resultado en pérdidas económicas en el campo. El objetivo de esta investigación fue la identificación de sequías meteorológicas utilizando técnicas de teledetección con imágenes IMERG de precipitación acumulada, para el período 2000-2023. Las imágenes descargadas fueron reproyectadas a la proyección WGS 84 / UTM 14N y utilizadas para calcular el Índice de Condición de la Precipitación (ICP). El estado de Tamaulipas para fines prácticos se dividió en tres partes al norte, al centro y al sur. Como método de validación, se correlacionaron los resultados obtenidos por el ICP con los del Índice Estandarizado de Precipitación a uno (SPI-1) y a tres (SPI-3) meses usando la correlación de Pearson. Los resultados principales muestran claramente seis años de sequía: 2000, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2022 y 2023. Los eventos de sequía obtenidos por el ICP coinciden con los años secos identificados por el SPI y con los años de menor actividad ciclónica en el Golfo de México. El ICP y el SPI-1 en la región del norte mostraron la mejor correlación lineal entre ellos (r = 0.87), mientras que la peor correlación se encontró entre el ICP y el SPI-3 en la región del sur (r = 0.44), por lo que se concluye que el ICP es un índice de sequía adecuado para el monitoreo de la sequía meteorológica en Tamaulipas y en climas similares.V.H.D.M. thanks CONAHCYT for the economic support given for the duration of the Masters’ program and to the Autonomous University of Tamaulipas for the opportunities given to present this research in conferences and publication of the paper in a scientific magazineUniversitat Politècnica de ValènciaRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20252025-05-30journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/224516reponame:RiuNet.
