Deciphering hydrological drought controls on atrak river discharge predictability: a multiscale dynamic assessment

Key Points

• Discharge predictability decreased by 30% during significant hydrological drought periods.
• Analysis across multiple scales highlights the influence of climate variables on river dynamics.
• Multiscale assessment revealed linked patterns between drought occurrences and river discharge changes.
• Findings suggest enhanced management strategies could mitigate future impacts from hydrological drought.
