[0078] Step 2, the Gamma distribution is adopted to fit the precipitation sequence and standardized to obtain the standardized precipitation index (Standardized precipitation index, SPI) of multiple time scales, and the precipitation comprehensive index (xSPI) is obtained based on principal component analysis (principal components analysis, PCA) fusion; the standardized runoff index (Standardized runoff index, SRI) of multiple time scales is calculated by the same method for the runoff sequence, and the runoff comprehensive index (xSRI) is obtained by PCA fusion; the monthly soil moisture is constructed by exponential smoothing to obtain the soil water index (Soil water index, SWI); the changes of soil, snow, vegetation canopy and surface water are removed by GRACE-TWSA to obtain the groundwater storage anomalies (Groundwater storage anomalies GWSA), and the GRACE groundwater drought index (GRACE groundwater drought index, GGDI) is calculated; the kernel normalized difference vegetation index (kNDVI) is constructed by using the Gaussian kernel function.
[0079] The Gamma distribution is adopted to fit the precipitation sequence and standardized to obtain the SPI of time scales of 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months, the xSPI is obtained based on principal component analysis (PCA) fusion of the SPI of 4 time scales, and the calculation formula of the SPI is as follows:

Furthermore, four SPI datasets with different time scales (SPI-1, SPI-3, SPI-6, and SPI-12) are integrated by principal component analysis (PCA) to effectively represent short-term and long-term precipitation anomalies and water shortage conditions, and the output results are recorded as xSPI.
[0083] The Gamma distribution is used to fit the precipitation series and standardized to obtain SRI with time scales of 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. xSRI is obtained by fusing the SRI of the four time scales based on principal component analysis (PCA). The calculation formula of SRI is as follows:

Furthermore, four SRI datasets with different time scales (SPI-1, SPI-3, SPI-6, and SPI-12) are integrated by principal component analysis (PCA) to effectively represent short-term and long-term runoff anomaly conditions, and the output results are recorded as xSRI.
[0086] The monthly soil moisture is used to construct the soil moisture index (SWI) by exponential smoothing, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0087] (4)
[0088] wherein denotes the soil water content index of the th month. denotes the soil water content of the th month. denotes the current month when calculating the soil water content index (SWI), and denotes the soil water content of a certain past month. The time lag constant is used to reflect the time scale, and i is an integer index used to uniquely identify each historical month involved in the calculation of the soil moisture index for the current month.
[0089] By removing soil, snow, canopy, and surface water variations using TWSA retrieved from the GRACE satellite, groundwater storage anomalies (GWSA), soil moisture storage anomalies (SMSA), snow water equivalent anomalies (SWEA), canopy water storage anomalies (CWSA), and surface water storage anomalies (SWSA) were obtained from the Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS) land surface model. The calculation formulas are as follows:

[0092] (7)
[0093] In the formula, Indicates the first Year Monthly GWSA value. This represents the average GWSA for month j across all years. Indicates the first Year The deviation in groundwater storage in a given month. and They represent the first Year The mean and standard deviation of monthly GSD. Indicates the first Year The GRACE groundwater drought index for the month.
[0094] The kernel-normalized difference vegetation index (kNDVI) is constructed using a Gaussian kernel function, and the specific calculation formula is as follows:
[0095] (8)
[0096] In the formula, This indicates the index's sensitivity to areas with sparse or dense vegetation. This represents near-infrared band data from remote sensing images. This represents the red band data of the remote sensing image. When When kNDVI is calculated, the formula can be simplified to the following form:
[0097] (9)
[0098] Taking kNDVI as an example, the spatial distribution map of kNDVI in the study area is as follows:Figure 2 The maximum value of kNDVI in July 2022 is 0.75, and the minimum value is 0. It can be seen from the figure that the low value is mainly concentrated in the north of the region, and the greenness of the vegetation is low. The kNDVI in the west of the region is higher than that in the east, which shows that the greenness of the local vegetation is higher.
[0099] Step 3, construction of vertical composite drought index (VCDI): calculate the marginal distribution of xSPI, xSRI, SWI and GGDI, use Copula model to fit and calculate VCDI for 4 sets of time series grid data, evaluate the goodness of fit of different structure of Copula fitting results according to RMSE, AIC and BIC, select the optimal model to obtain monthly scale VCDI.
[0100] The Copula model is used to fit and calculate VCDI for 4 sets of time series grid data. For random variables and their joint cumulative distribution function , there is a Copula function satisfying:
[0101] (10)
[0102] Where n is the number of variables. The goodness of fit (GOF) of the Copula model is evaluated by root mean square error (RMSE), Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC), and the formula is as follows:
[0103] (11)
[0104] (12)

[0106] In the formula, is the maximum likelihood value of the Copula model, is the number of parameters in the model, is the sample size used to fit the Copula model; and are the fitted value and the fitted expected value, respectively. After comparing multiple Copula models (Gaussian, Cayton, Frank, Gumbel and R-Vine), the R-Vine Copula model with the highest goodness of fit is used.
[0107] The spatial distribution map of VCDI in the study area is as follows Figure 3The figure can reflect the area affected by drought in July 2022. The maximum value of VCDI in this area is 2.5, and the minimum value is -0.3. It can be seen that the degree of drought in this area increases from south to north, especially in the northwest part of the region, where most of the VCDI values are negative, indicating that the area is more severely affected by drought.
[0108] Step 4: Identify drought events based on the multi-threshold run theory (MTRT): First, set the drought identification threshold and event identification rules, merge adjacent small events, and eliminate short and weak events to obtain the drought event set. Specifically, set the drought threshold according to the value of VCDI, and set the threshold 、 and as 0, -1 and -2, respectively. If the VCDI of the t-th month satisfies , it is recorded as a potential drought event. For a drought event with a duration of 1 month, if , it is considered as an independent drought event and retained, otherwise it is not counted. For adjacent drought events with an interval of 1 month, if , they will be merged into one drought event. Then calculate the number of drought events, event duration, severity and intensity, and the specific calculation formulas are as follows:
[0109] (14)
[0110] (15)
[0111] (16)
[0112] In the formula, represents the total duration of the identified drought events, represents the total number of drought events. represents the duration of the drought event , and represent the start time and end time indices of the drought event , respectively. represents the sum of the severity of all drought events in this period. represents the severity of the drought event . is an indicator function that takes the value 1 when , otherwise it takes the value 0. represents the drought intensity in this period; according to the identified regional drought characteristics, it can be applied to further explore the causes of changes in vegetation drought resistance.
[0113] The spatial distribution of drought intensity in the study area is shown inFigure 4 The maximum value of drought intensity in the region is 1.99 and the minimum value is 1.32. It can be seen from the figure that the regions with higher drought intensity are mainly distributed in the middle of the sub-basin. The regions with lower drought intensity are mainly distributed in the north and part of the southeast, and the spatial distribution is different from VCDI.
[0114] Step 5, Vegetation Drought Resistance Index (VDRI) construction: According to the drought events identified in step 4, the vegetation drought resistance index in each drought event time range is further calculated. Specifically, first, kNDVI, LST, and VCDI are normalized in the same direction, and the distance from the sample to the "weakest condition of vegetation drought resistance" is defined as VDRI based on the Euclidean distance of the three-dimensional feature space. Normalize kNDVI, LST, and VCDI in the Dongting Lake Basin, the formula is as follows:
[0115] (17)
[0116] (18)
[0117] (19)
[0118] In the formula, , and represent the normalized monthly kNDVI, LST, and VCDI, respectively. The subscripts max and min represent the maximum value and the minimum value, respectively. According to its physical meaning, it can be inferred that lower kNDVI and VCDI and higher LST indicate that vegetation is under greater drought stress. On the contrary, higher kNDVI and VCDI and lower LST indicate that vegetation has higher resistance under drought conditions. By establishing a three-dimensional feature space of , and , the Euclidean distance is used to calculate VDRI, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0119] (20)
[0120] In the formula, the maximum value of , and in the three-dimensional feature space represents the minimum value of , the minimum value of , and the minimum value of , respectively. The value range of VDRI is 0 to , the larger the VDRI, the stronger the vegetation drought resistance, and the smaller the VDRI, the weaker the vegetation drought resistance.
[0121] The spatial distribution map of VDRI in the study area is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the VDRI accurately represents the spatial distribution of vegetation drought resistance in this sub-basin in July 2022. The VDRI is lower in the northeastern part of the region, indicating lower drought resistance compared to the vegetation in the southern part.
[0122] Step 6, calculate VDRI anomalies (A VDRI To reflect changes in vegetation drought resistance, standardized outliers (SA) are used. VDRI To determine the time required for vegetation drought resistance to recover to its optimal state, the average time between the month of most severe drought and the month of optimal recovery is calculated using the SA (Self-Rating) curve. VDRI The difference is used to quantify the drought resilience of vegetation, and the formula is as follows:
[0123] (twenty one)
[0124] (twenty two)
[0125] (twenty three)
[0126] In the formula, This indicates the resilience of vegetation after drought. Indicates the first A month VDRI , Indicates the first SA of one month VDRI , Indicates the first VDRI value over a month. and These represent the mean and standard deviation of the VDRI over the selected data time range, respectively. and SA represents the months with the most severe drought and the months with the best recovery, respectively. VDRI value.
[0127] Spatial distribution map of vegetation drought resilience in the study area is shown below. Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the maximum vegetation drought resilience in this region from 2000 to 2022 was 1.21, and the minimum was 0.51. The figure shows that areas with lower values are mainly distributed in the northeastern part of the sub-basin, while areas with higher vegetation drought resilience are mainly distributed in the southern part of the sub-basin.
[0128] Step 7: Use lag cross-correlation to identify the lag relationship between VDRI and vegetation ecological function indicators, and calculate the lag response months of vegetation ecological function indicators to VDRI, as shown in the following formula:
[0129] (24)
[0130] (25)
[0131] (26)
[0132] wherein, represents the maximum lag month, and in the present application, the value is set to 12. represents the maximum lag correlation between the VDRI and the vegetation ecological function parameter after the kth month, and the greater the absolute value of the value, the higher the correlation between the VDRI and the vegetation ecological function parameter. represents the covariance between and and are the standard deviations of the two sequences respectively. and respectively represent the lag correlation coefficient and the lag time.
[0133] The spatial distribution map of the lag time of the influence of drought on the physiological function of vegetation in the study area is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 7 The figure can reflect the lag month of the influence of drought on vegetation in the region. Among them, the lag month in the west of the region is smaller, indicating that the ecological function of the vegetation in the region is immediately affected under the condition of drought. The spatial distribution of the lag time of the influence of the vegetation in the east of the region is not uniform, which may be due to the agricultural irrigation and other activities, which may cause the difference in the response of the vegetation to drought.
