Abstract:
The paper examines the long term changes in the annual mean maximum and minimum temperatures during the period of 53 years (1965-2017). It presents the trend of temperature changes in five decades (1965-2014) along with annual fluctuations during last three years of the study (2015-2017) in Damoh district of Madhya Pradesh. Impact was observed by analyzing time series data on temperature. To identify any pattern of change in mean temperatures, standard deviation and coefficient of variance were also calculated. Fluctuations observed throughout the decade with uneven rises and falls in temperature suggest that there is no specific trend of rise or fall. With regard to changes in temperature it is observed that mean maximum temperature has increased by 1.5°C in the period of these five decades. The decadal mean maximum temperature was 31°C in 1965-74 and but the same was recorded as 32.5°C in 2005-14 which reveals rise in mean maximum temperature. On the other hand, mean minimum temperature decreased by 1.2°C in the period of these five decades, as the decadal mean minimum temperature was 20.3°C in 1965-74 and the same was recorded as 19.1°C in 2005-14. This shows the falling trend in mean minimum temperature. Hence, in the past five decades summers of Damoh are getting warmer and winters are getting colder. The analysis in the present study indicated that the change point year of the significant upward shift was 2003.
