               2.3. Indices in Determining the Climate Zones
               Indices  classifying  climate  zones  have  been  used  to  monitor  the  spatial
            effects of climate change at the basin scale. These classification types, also
            called drought indices, are expressed as quantitative indicators of the lack of
            water in a particular place (Oliver, 2008), and current researches on their high
            performance in depicting drought patterns and intensities are quite common
            (Ullah et al., 2022). The climate data available in the indexes are provided by
            measurements made by 83 meteorological stations located in and around the
            Antalya basin (meteorological stations located in the provinces and districts
            of Isparta, Burdur and Antalya) belonging to the Turkish State Meteorological
            Service. Using the data obtained from the measurement made between 2000
            and 2022, climate maps are created with 30m x 30m spatial resolution by means
