Difference from Average Precipitation represents the accumulated precipitation value for a location, subtracted by the long-term average value. A negative value indicates that the location has received less than the normal amount of precipitation (mm) for that timeframe. A positive value indicates that the location has received more than the normal amount of precipitation (mm). Time periods calculated for difference from average precipitation are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. Long-term average is 1991-2020. Each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year. An ISO week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. The National Agroclimate Series of Derived Indicators (NASDI) products provide a collection of comprehensive and regularly updated datasets on key agroclimatic variables, including accumulated precipitation, standardized precipitation index, and difference from normal temperature, among others. These datasets incorporate both real-time and historical climate information, offering enhanced insight into conditions and trends across Canada’s diverse agricultural regions.

Precipitation percentiles represents the accumulated precipitation (mm) for the time period compared to historical information for the same time period. This comparison ranks the current precipitation amount and assigns it a percentile value based on a historic record. Time periods calculated for monthly precipitation percentiles are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. Each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year. An ISO week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. Historical record goes back to 1980.

Percent of average precipitation represents the total amount of precipitation for a particular location over a specific time period, divided by the long-term average precipitation (1991-2020) for the same period and location, expressed as a percentage. Percent of average precipitation is to provide a clear and standardized way to compare how much precipitation has fallen during a specific time period relative to the long-term average for the same location and time period. Time periods calculated for monthly precipitation percentiles are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. Each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year. An ISO week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. Long-term average is 1991-2020.

Accumulated Precipitation represents the amount of total precipitation in mm (solid and/or liquid) which has been recorded over a given month or ISO week. Accumulation of precipitation values serve to inform users about the total amount of precipitation that has fallen in a specific region during a set time period. The National Agroclimate Series of Derived Indicators (NASDI) products provide a collection of comprehensive and regularly updated datasets on key agroclimatic variables, including accumulated precipitation, standardized precipitation index, and difference from normal temperature, among others. These datasets incorporate both real-time and historical climate information, offering enhanced insight into conditions and trends across Canada’s diverse agricultural regions.

The Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) is computed similarly to the SPI. The main difference is that SPI assesses precipitation variance, while SPEI also considers demand from evapotranspiration which is subtracted from any precipitation accumulation prior to assessment. Unlike the SPI, the SPEI captures the main impact of increased temperatures on water demand SPI values indicate the number of standard deviations the observed anomaly departs from the long-term period of record, with positive values corresponding to wetter-than-average conditions. Time periods calculated for monthly precipitation percentiles are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. Each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year.

Climatic variability plays a critical role in shaping Canada’s agricultural sector, influencing essential factors such as water availability, soil health, and both the yield and quality of crops. Shifts in temperature, distribution of rainfall, and increases in extreme weather events can severely disrupt agricultural operations, making continual environmental monitoring crucial. Canada’s vast and diverse agricultural regions require specialized, localized data to enable effective preparedness and resilience planning for farmers, policymakers, and rural communities; particularly in anticipating and managing drought and other climate-related risks. To address this need, National Agroclimate Series of Derived Indicators (NASDI) products provide a collection of comprehensive and regularly updated datasets on key agroclimatic variables, including accumulated precipitation, standardized precipitation index, and difference from normal temperature, among others. These datasets incorporate both real-time and historical climate information, offering enhanced insight into conditions and trends across Canada’s diverse agricultural regions.

The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) is widely regarded as one of the most accessible tools for quantifying and reporting meteorological drought. At shorter timescales, SPI values are highly correlated with soil moisture, while at extended timescales, they reflect variations in groundwater and reservoir storage. The SPI model derives probability distributions from historical precipitation records, which are then normalized using an incomplete gamma function across multiple timescales. SPI values indicate the number of standard deviations the observed anomaly departs from the long-term period of record, with positive values corresponding to wetter-than-average conditions. Time periods calculated for monthly precipitation percentiles are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. Each ISO week is numbered from 1 to 52 (sometimes 53) within a year.
