Trends in Extreme Precipitation Indices over Bhutan

چکیده
With the changing climate, frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events are increasing. Climate change is projected to increase both mean precipitation. Socio-economic damages can be immense require a difficult recovery, especially for developing countries such as Bhutan. Furthermore, patterns affect land productivity water availability. The Experts Team on Change Detection Indices (ETCCDI) used find changes associated with in study important Bhutan, whose economy dependent agriculture hydropower. Even small country, there were varying different districts. Deothang district received less frequent more intense rainfall, while Haa, Bumthang, Trashiyangtse, Chukha weak but persistent rainfall. Mann–Kendall trends revealed drier climate two districts, Dagana wetter Mongar district. Modeling rainfall value theory (EVT) that generalized (GEV) distribution by their T = 50-year return value, indicating an increasing annual maximums all stations.

Jp1.15 Detected Trends in Extreme Temperature and Precipitation Indices in the Central/eastern European Region
Drought events in a particular region often occur in case of long-term lack of precipitation coinciding with hot weather. Global climate change implies increasing global mean temperature (IPCC, 2001), which may occur due to the increasing average and the modified frequency distribution of temperature values. The main objective of our research is to detect the possible changes of intensity and f...
متن کاملTrends in Precipitation Extremes over India
One of the most significant consequences of global warming due to increase in greenhouse gases would be an increase in magnitude and frequency of extreme precipitation events. In the present study the trends in extreme rainfall indices for the period 1901-2000 were examined for 100 stations over India. The trends for the southwest monsoon season and annual period were calculated separately. The...
متن کاملTrends in indices of daily precipitation extremes in Catalonia
The aim of this paper is to quantitatively characterize the climatology of daily precipitation indices in Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula) from 1951 to 2003. This work has been performed analyzing a subset of the ETCCDI (Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices) precipitation indices calculated from a new interpolated dataset of daily precipitation, namely SPAIN02, regular ...
متن کاملTrends of Extreme Temperature Over the Lake Urmia Basin, Iran, During 1987-2014
The variability of temperature extremes has been the focus of attention during the past several decades and had a great influence on the hydrologic cycle. A long-term, high-quality daily maximum (TX) and minimum temperature (TN) of seven stations was used to determine the spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme temperature events in Lake Urmia Basin in Iran during 1987 to 2014. The RCli...
