the study area. Finally, section 8 provides a summary of the findings with the conclusion and potential for future expansion of this work. 2. Study area The Apalachicola–Chattahoochee–Flint (ACF) basin, located in the southeastern United States, encompasses the three states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. The total area of the basin is 50 800 km 2 most of which is located in western Georgia ( Fig. 1 ). The Chattahoochee and Flint are the two major rivers in this basin originating from the

valley of California, and the southeast United States. Comparatively, the impacts of assimilation over the Northeast and much of the western United States on drought are marginal. Note that many of the areas with the most improvement in correlation to the USDM are cropland in the UMD land cover classification. The more marginal improvements in cropland locations along and east of the Mississippi River are likely due to a combination of fewer drought events in the USDM, lower seasonality of monthly

definitions as to the spatial coverage of these two regions for various research purposes. For example, Erfanian and Fu (2019) used the region of 105°–95°W, 30°–39°N for the southern Great Plains and 105°–95°W, 39°–48°N for the northern Great Plains. A more traditionally recognized spatial coverage for the Great Plains is that of Shafer et al. (2014) which spans a large area west of the Mississippi River tallgrass prairie and east of the Rocky Mountains. Here we use the region of 105°–95°W, 35°–47°N
