The rising incidence of droughts in specific global regions in recent years, primarily attributed to global warming, has markedly increased the demand for reliable and accurate streamflow estimation. Streamflow estimation is essential for the effective management and utilization of water resources, as well as for the design of hydraulic infrastructure. Furthermore, research on streamflow estimation has gained heightened importance because water is essential not only for the survival of all living organisms but also for determining the quality of life on Earth. In this study, advanced soft computing techniques, including long short-term memory (LSTM), convolutional neural network–recurrent neural network (CNN-RNN), and group method of data handling (GMDH) algorithms, were employed to forecast monthly streamflow time series at two different stations in the Wadi Mina basin. The performance of each technique was evaluated using statistical criteria such as mean square error (MSE), mean bias error (MBE), mean absolute error (MAE), and the correlation coefficient (R). The results of this study demonstrated that the GMDH algorithm produced the most accurate forecasts at the Sidi AEK Djillali station, with metrics of MSE: 0.132, MAE: 0.185, MBE: −0.008, and R: 0.636. Similarly, the CNN-RNN algorithm achieved the best performance at the Kef Mehboula station, with metrics of MSE: 0.298, MAE: 0.335, MBE: −0.018, and R: 0.597.

The prediction of hydrological drought is significant for the management of water resources, planning of hydroelectricity production, agricultural production, habitat, and life of living things. The primary aim of this study is to increase the prediction success hydrological drought in the Wadi Ouahrane basin (270 km2). For this purpose, support vector regression technique is hybridized with Election Algorithm. Standardized Runoff Index (SRI) values were used to determine hydrological droughts. In calculating droughts, rainfall and stream flow data covering the years 1972–2018 were employed. Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and previous SRI values were used in the establishment of the hydrological drought prediction model. The coefficient of determination, Standard deviation, the Akaike information criterion and root-mean-square error values were used to test the model accuracy. It was identified to be the most accurate according to the research outputs were obtained with SRI-12 and the Election Algorithm-based support vector regression algorithm showed successful results in hydrological drought prediction. In addition, it was revealed that realistic results are obtained when SPI value and delayed SRI values were used as inputs in multi-time scale analysis of hydrological drought.

Drought is a natural disaster characterised as precipitation much lower than the precipitation reported in actual periods. Many studies characterized drought as meteorological, hydrological, agricultural, or socioeconomic. When there is a long-term shortage of precipitation, deficits in surface and ground waters occur. In this study, a hydrological drought analysis has been performed for Wadi Mina Basin (4900 km2), which is the biggest sub-basin in Cheliff Basin, using the Streamflow Drought Index (SDI) for the time scales of 3, 6, 9, and 12-month. Monthly mean streamflow records for 05 stations are obtained from the National Water Resources Agency. The obtained SDI values were subjected to Run analysis and drought duration and severity values were calculated. According to the analysis, it has been observed that the maximum (duration: 70 months, severity: 92.78) and average (duration: 31 months, severity: 31.28) droughts occurred at the Sidi AEK Djillali station on a 12-month time scale. The average drought severity was 6.34, with a maximum value of 56.71 on a monthly time scale. However, on a 12-month time scale, the average drought severity increased to 31.28, with a maximum value of 92.78. Therefore, it can be said that the drought severity has increased with the increase in the time scale. When the temporal changes of drought indices are evaluated, it is noteworthy that extraordinary droughts prevailed in the basin in 2000 and 2007. When the scatter diagrams of drought characteristics were examined, it was seen that there was a significant linear relationship between drought duration and severity. In addition, the highest correlation was observed at the 9-month time scale at Ain Hamara (R:0.964) and Oued Abtal (R:0.904) stations. In contrast, the highest correlation was observed at the 12-month time scale at Sidi AEK Djillali (R:0.980) and Takhmaret (R:0.969) stations.

Drought is one of the most severe climatic calamities, affecting many aspects of the environment and human existence. Effective planning and decision making in disaster-prone areas require accurate and reliable drought predictions globally. The selection of an effective forecasting model is still challenging due to the lack of information on model performance, even though data-driven models have been widely employed to anticipate droughts. Therefore, this study investigated the application of simple extreme learning machine (ELM) and wavelet-based ELM (W-ELM) algorithms in drought forecasting. Standardized runoff index was used to model hydrological drought at different timescales (1-, 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month) at five Wadi Mina Basin (Algeria) hydrological stations. A partial autocorrelation function was adopted to select lagged input combinations for drought prediction. The results suggested that both algorithms predict hydrological drought well. Still, the performance of W-ELM remained superior at most of the hydrological stations with an average coefficient of determination = 0.74, root mean square error = 0.36, and mean absolute error = 0.43. It was also observed that the performance of the models in predicting drought at the 12-month timescale was higher than at the 1-month timescale. The proposed hybrid approach combined ELM’s fast-learning ability and discrete wavelet transform’s ability to decompose into different frequency bands, producing promising outputs in hydrological droughts. The findings indicated that the W-ELM model can be used for reliable drought predictions in Algeria.
