abstract in this study we have used the monthly data resulted from the calculation of temperature and precipitation for a 52-year period (1951-2003). the doubling effect of carbon dioxide ( ) on temperature and precipitation was modeled as the most important climatic parameters. the resulting hythergraph and ambrothermic models for tabriz indicate monthly increases of temperature and precipitat...

in this study, we used monthly palmer severity drought index (pdsi) data of national center of oceanic atmospheric administration (noaa) during 1/1950 to 12/2005(56 year). the time and space resolution of data is monthly and 2.5*2.5 degree respectively. therefore 26 pixels located in iran political boundary. a matrix 26*672 carried out that pixels located on rows and month located on column. th...

Abstract. Conventional streamflow models operate under the assumption of constant variance or season-dependent variances (e.g. ARMA (AutoRegressive Moving Average) models for deseasonalized streamflow series and PARMA (Periodic AutoRegressive Moving Average) models for seasonal streamflow series). However, with McLeod-Li test and Engle’s Lagrange Multiplier test, clear evidences are found for t...

Urban parks have been shown to form park cool islands (PCIs), which can effectively alleviate the negative influences of urban heat islands (UHI). However, few studies have examined the detailed characteristics of PCIs, the effect of urban park features on their individual temperatures, and monthly variation in PCIs. Land surface temperature (LST) retrieved from Landsat 8 TIR images between May...
