“…This implies that the magnitudes of trends in Tmax were higher than Tmin. In the rest of the country (centre and southern areas) negative values prevailed; the exception was the pre-monsoon season, which was characterised by a dominance of the positive range in most of Pakistan due to the results for March (not shown), when the rate of increase in Tmax was about 1.6 times higher than Tmin.Our results can be related to the behaviour of DTR (Diurnal Temperature Range), in line with those findings ofFowler and Archer (2006),Bhutiyani et al (2007),Singh et al (2008),Jhajharia et al (2011),Revadekar et al (2013) andYassen et al (2014), who reported increases in the Diurnal Temperature Range (DTR) for some areas of Pakistan or neighbouring territories;…”

“…In another analysis for the period of 1876-2006, Bhutiyani et al (2010 reported an increase of 0.11 • C/decade in Northwest Indian Himalaya. Singh et al (2008) studied maximum temperature trend in northwest Indian Himalaya and found increasing trend in all seasons except monsoon. For the period of 1901-2003, Jhajharia and Singh (2011) reported a rise of 0.2-0.8 • C/decade in average temperature, 0.1-0.9 • C/decade in maximum temperature and 0.1-0.6 • C/decade in minimum temperature.…”

Glacier mass balance is the direct and non delayed response against the climate change and hence it is one of the essential variables require to monitor the climate system. This paper presents a brief review of the glacier mass balance status and their analysis under the changing climate in the Indian Himalayan Region (IHR). The reported results of mass balance in the region give the status of continuous negative mass balance with few exceptions for a year or two reflecting the overall negative mass balance with increasing trend in recent decades. This has coordination with continuous increasing pattern of temperature and decreasing (few not significant) pattern of precipitation. The continuous negative mass balance and rising temperature in the region clearly indicate the impact of warming in reducing the storage of snow and ice in the region with the future implication of shortage of fresh water availability in the snow-glacier fed river system. This will have further implication to the downstream communities for their livelihood.

“…Nonparametric MK/MMK test were used for trend detection in annual and seasonal rainfall series (Mann, 1945;Kendall, 1975). Various researchers applied MK test to examine trend in hydro meteorological series (Yu et al, 1993;Douglas et al, 2000;Yue et al, 2003;Burn et al, 2004;Singh et al, 2008). It is essential to check the significance of autocorrelation in time series as a preliminary examination in MK test.…”

In the present study Mann-Kendall (MK)/Modified Mann-Kendall (MMK) test, and Sen’s slope test were used to determine the trend over the Southern part of Bihar at seasonal and annual time scales for 11 stations using 110 years data (1901-2010). In MMK test all stations in annual and monsoon season showed a significant decrease in rainfall trend at the 10% significance level. The maximum decrease in the magnitude of rainfall observed for the annual season was - 2.861 mm/year followed by monsoon rainfall - 2.792 mm/year, and for winter rainfall - 0.085mm/year respectively. On the other hand, the maximum increase in rainfall observed for Post monsoon season was 0.225 mm/year and for summer season it was 0.138mm/year during the study period. Spatial trend depicted the Nalanda and Jamui has the greatest reduction of rainfall from the last 110 years. This study will be very helpful for policymakers, agriculturists, and framers to take a decision on water management, crop scheduling and patterns over this region.
