چکیده
seasonal and annual precipitation increased, except in the summer; the annual precipitation increased by about one millimeter pre year over the last 52 years. The spring precipitation significantly increased at the 99 % confidence level, while the mean summer precipitation insignificantly decreased at the 95 % confidence level. The extreme precipitation, including the maxima and minima, also experienced 10

Precipitation Trends Analysis in Southwest Asia during the Last Half Century
Precipitation is a climatic elements that have temporal - spatial distribution. In this research database of Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC) with a resolution 0.5×0.5 degree for 50 year is used, that was constituted with dimensions of 12800*600. Temporal data are on the columns and pixels (spatial data) located on the rows. The results show an increasing trend in spring and fall ...
متن کاملThe Precipitation Variations in the Qinghai-Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau during 1961–2015
The variation of precipitation plays an important role in the eco-hydrological processes and water resources regimes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP). Based on the monthly mean precipitation data of 65 meteorological stations over the TP and surrounding areas from 1961 to 2015, variations, trends and temporal–spatial distribution of precipitation have been studied; furthermore, the possible reasons ...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Displacements in Wet and Dry Periods in the Southeast of the Caspian Sea: Golestan Province in Iran
The global warming phenomenon has had a great impact not only on the temperature patterns of the regions, but also on the spatial-temporal patterns of the occurrence of wet and dry days. As some areas have increased (decreased) the number of dry days, the result of these changes requires new approaches to water management in these areas. Golestan province in northern Iran is one of the province...
متن کاملCharacteristics and Scenarios Projection of Climate Change on the Tibetan Plateau
The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC AR4) presents twenty-two global climate models (GCMs). In this paper, we evaluate the ability of 22 GCMs to reproduce temperature and precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau by comparing with ground observations for 1961~1900. The results suggest that all the GCMs underestimate surface air temperature and most mo...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Variability of Annual Precipitation during 1958-2007 in Loess Plateau, China
The non-parametric Mann-Kendall method and Sliding t-test were applied in this study to analyze the spatial and temporal patterns of trends of the precipitation in the Loess Plateau from 1958 to 2007. The main trends of the precipitation in this region is downward, only four upward time series have not reach the significant level. Most of the abrupt changes happened in northeast of Loess Platea...
