The Study of Spatial-temporal Changes in the trend of Autumn Precipitation in Northwest Iran
Precipitation is the most important hydrological variable that connects the link between atmosphere and surface processes. Three-quarters of the atmosphere heat is the result of releasing the latent heat of evaporation. Therefore, climatic zoning of autumn precipitation is necessary for achieving comprehensive development in different spatial-temporal dimensions. For this purpose, the daily data of autumn season at 18 synoptic stations of the study area have been analyzed with a joint statistical period 32 (1989 - 2018). In this study, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to find out the normality of the data and Mann-Kendall test was used for the process of their changes. Then by applying factor analysis based on principal component analysis and with orthogonal rotation of Varimax it was found that there are two effective precipitation factors in the climate of the region which in total account for more than 68.16% of the variance of the region's autumn precipitation climate. By performing hierarchical cluster analysis and by integrating the matrix of factor scores, two main and sub-regions were identified. These areas are: Areas of high precipitation and moderate precipitation. It can be said that in the high precipitation areas of the territory are located on the rainy of the Zagros, Sahand and Arasbaran mountain belts, stretching as a narrow strip from the north to the south parts of the region.
