In recent years, Kurdistan Province has faced a dramatic decline in groundwater levels. In this research, the time interval between the occurrence of meteorological drought and hydrological drought was determined for the necessary measures to cope with the drought caused by the lack of surface water and underground water resources. Therefore, the hydrological drought situation in Kurdistan Province was evaluated using Groundwater Resources Index (GRI) and Streamflow Drought Index (SDI) and compared with meteorological drought indicators. The GRI and SDI time series for the 30 years of studied period of 1982-2014 was inter-compared. The GRI showed the highest percentage of frequency of normal period. According to the results of Man-Kendall test, in all time scales, SDI has a higher variability than the meteorological drought indicators. Knowing the interval between the occurrence of meteorological drought and hydrological drought will help managers to cope with the drought caused by a shortage of surface water resources in the interior ministry, The Markov chain model used to predict the current state of a system with regard to the previous state in the statistical period showed good performance. According to the results of the study, on average, the probability of dry, wet and normal periods in the stations was 31, 29, and 40 percent, respectively. This means that in most cases, the region is in normal climatic condition, while the likelihood of wet and dry conditions is very similar. Also, SPEI with12 and 24 months’ time scales have the highest correlation with GRI index at 3 months lag-times, which showed the effects of meteorological drought on groundwater level even after two years or more. By considering the results of this study, the executive directors of water in the province can mitigate the effects of the crises caused by the hydrological droughts.

Abstract The effects of droughts on surface water and groundwater resources reduce the amount of water available to different sectors. Hydrological drought initially begins with decreasing rainfall and is usually associated with lower levels of lakes and reservoirs. To this end, in order to ma ke appropriate management decisions to prevent the harmful effects of drought, it is necessary to assess the characteristics of this phenomenon by assessing and monitoring the drought. In this research, the time series analysis and SDI shaking technique were used to evaluate the hydrological drought at the hydrometric station at the Marian River during the period from 1982 to 2015. The results of hydrological drought on the sunshine station showed that the highest frequency of droughts was related to mild droughts with 29.41% and severe drought with 11.74% and medium drought of 2.94%. Also, the results of self-correlation series analysis, which showed significant correlation for all months except Azar, before the analysis of its effect was removed by Hamed and Rao (modified by Mann-Kendal), and in December, the ordinary Mann-Kendall test used. In all months of the station, except for the month of Aban and Azar (non significant), during the period of 1982-2015, gradual changes are significant at 5% level, and the sudden changes of the time series are significant at 5% level and have a decreasing trend. Also, the results of the Paty's homogeneity test showed that the sudden changes in the time series were significant at all levels at the 5% level.
