“…Teleconnection patterns can affect vast areas (such as the Northern Hemisphere) and explain much of the variability and trends in precipitation and temperature at the regional scale (Trigo and Palutikof 2001;Vicente-Serrano et al 2006;López-Bustins et al 2008;Rizou et al 2015, Rios-Cornejo et al 2015. Some studies in Asia have also focused on the relationship between climate and patterns in recent decades: Tatli (2007) in the region 50ºW-120ºE, 0º-80ºN; Syed et al (2010) in Central -Southwest Asia; Villafuerte and Matsumoto (2015) in Southeast Asia; Khan et al (2008), Saaed et al (2011), Revadekar et al (2012) and Azfal et al (2013) in Pakistan; Khalili (2006, 2008) in Iran; Türkes and Erlat (2009) The main goal of the present study is to contribute to the existing knowledge of trends (sign and magnitude) in Tmax and Tmin in Pakistan in recent decades.…”

“…Such variability is caused by coupled interactions between atmospheric and oceanic components, measured by an index. Globally, ENSO is the most important mode of climate variability, and has been linked with changes in hydrometeorological extremes in past studies at different scales, including national [6][7][8], continental [9][10][11], and global [12][13][14][15].…”

“…Furthermore, in order to explain the rainfall regime in the Iberian Peninsula, previous researchers related the annual, seasonal or monthly volume to synoptic situations linked to patterns of atmospheric circulation and weather types (Muñoz-Díaz and Rodrigo, 2006;Lopez-Bustins et al, 2008;Casado et al, 2010;Hidalgo-Muñoz et al, 2011;Cortesi et al, 2014;Ríos-Cornejo et al, 2015) or to the temperature of the sea surface (Gámiz-Fortis et al, 2010). The connection with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) presents particular interest.…”

Understanding the intra‐annual distribution of rainfall is an important element for climatic classification and serves as a basis for natural resources management. The present study analyses multi‐annual irregularities of the rainfall distribution throughout the year in the period 1941–2010, in the hydrographic basins of the Iberian Peninsula. In order to analyse its variation, the rainfall centralisation and dispersion parameters throughout the annual cycle were previously defined and calculated for each year. Inter‐annual series of both parameters were generated, which allowed detecting their temporal behaviour in each of the basins and relating differentiated geographic areas. Independent of the total annual rainfall, greater temporal simultaneity is observed in the fluctuations of the intra‐annual parameter ‘centralisation’ in the Atlantic basins and wider inter‐annual oscillations in the Mediterranean basins. Around the year 1970, there was a displacement in the predominance of autumn rains, although the process is inverted in the last decades. Also from the decade of 1970 there is a general increase in the inter‐annual variability of the ‘dispersion’ parameter, especially in the basins that drain towards the Atlantic Ocean. The ‘dispersion’ parameter allows detecting latitudinal (Cantabrian vs. Guadalquivir) and longitudinal (Atlantic vs. Mediterranean) patterns of intra‐annual rainfall distribution irregularity in the Iberian Peninsula. The results obtained are also associated to atmospheric general circulation patterns of the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Western Mediterranean Oscillation. The monthly winter values of the North Atlantic Oscillation present a marked influence on dispersion, especially in the basins that discharge into the Atlantic Ocean, which show a double gradient: decreasing longitudinally from the Atlantic coast to the Mediterranean coast and latitudinally from north to south.
