Exceptional water deficits are forecast along much of the Pacific Coast of South America and may be particularly intense in Peru and Chile, as seen in the 6-month map (below left) showing April through September 2015.
The April through September deficits follow an extended period of exceptional deficits, and socioeconomic impacts are intensifying. The 36-month map (below right) shows the composite water anomaly index calculated with observed data and integrated over the three year period from July 2012 through June 2015.
