Examining trends in temperature and precipitation mean/extremes over Gandaki Province, Nepal

Abstract Despite the increased frequency of extreme climate events including their significance in Nepal's socio-economy, studies have seldom considered extremes, and even fewer them combination with temperature precipitation. This study aimed at examining trend variables Gandaki Province, Nepal. Daily precipitation data five stations between 1990 2020 were analyzed. Modified Mann–Kendall Sen's slope methods used to detect magnitude. The Mann–Whitney–Pettitt test was abrupt changes, Pearson correlation coefficient find correlation. result showed an increasing a significant change maximum for all stations. A decreasing minimum observed Himalayas Hill region, whereas seen Siwalik Terai regions. Jomsom station, however, behaved differently by showing number rainy days. majority indices unlike indices, which mixed result. five-day consecutive dry days positive altitude. results indicate increase intensity conditions Province.
