Temporal-Spatial Variability of the Severest Dry Spells in the North-West of Iran
The variability of temperature and precipitation is regarded as one of the main characteristics of the climate.Precipitation and its results, especially results such as droughts, vary on different temporal and spatial scales. Thepurpose of this paper is to determine the frequency of the inter-annual variability of the driest month in north-westIran. In order to obtain the best results, we used ...

متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Variability in Winter Precipitation across the Western United States during the Satellite Era
The western United States is known for its water shortages due to large seasonal and inter-annual variability of precipitation as well as increasing demand. Climate change will impact the availability of water in the western United States through the modification of precipitation characteristics. Satellite data presents the opportunity to study these changes at a fine, continuous spatial resolu...
متن کاملWarm and Dry Spells (WDS) in Austral Winter over Central South America
The horizontal and vertical structure of unusually warm and dry spells (WDS) over the central parts of South America during the winter and post-winter months (JJAS) are studied. During WDS the mean temperature and humidity anomalies over central Brazil are about +4.1C and −13.2%, respectively. The mean duration of WDS is 11 days and their mean frequency is less than one per year during the mont...
متن کاملDetermining spatial variability of dry spells: a Markov-based method, applied to the Makanya catchment, Tanzania
With a growing world population and a trend towards more resource-intensive diets, pressure on land and water resources for food production will continue to increase in the coming decades. Large parts of the world rely on rainfed agriculture for their food security. In Africa, 90 % of the food production is from rainfed agriculture, generally with low yields and a high risk of crop failure. One...
