Investigating Temporal Trends and Spatial Characteristics of Rainfall and Meteorological Drought in the West of Iran during the Last Few Decades
Drought is one of the most serious problems arising for human societies and ecosystems from climatevariability. This phenomenon causes billions of dollars in global damages annually and affects morepeople than any other form of natural disasters.In this study, the trends of rainfall and meteorological drought time series were investigated at tenstations located in the east of Iran for the perio...
متن کاملInvestigation of the atmospheric circulation anomalies associated with extreme rainfall events over the Coastal West Africa
This study investigates the atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events over the coastal West Africa. The rainfall data of this study were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), spanning from 1981 to 2010. The atmospheric datasets were also obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study employed the Z-Index to categorize dry and wet years into...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Variability of Rainfall over the South-West Coast of Bangladesh
This study examined the spatial and temporal rainfall variability from the 1940s to 2007 in the south west coastal region of Bangladesh. Time series statistical tests were applied to examine the spatial and temporal trends in three time segments (1948–1970, 1971–1990 and 1991–2007) and four seasons (Pre-monsoon; Monsoon; Post-Monsoon and Winter), during the period 1948–2007. Eight weather stati...
متن کاملStudies of 21st-century precipitation trends over West Africa
West Africa includes a semi-arid zone between the Sahara Desert and the humid Gulf of Guinea coast, approximately between 10°N and 20°N, which is irrigated by summer monsoon rains. This article refers to the region as the Sahel. Rain-fed agriculture is the primary sustenance for Sahel populations, and severe droughts (in the 1970s and 1980s), therefore, have devastating negative societal impact...
