Abstract:

This study aims to determine rainfall trend in the Bihar state of India using 70years data recorded between 1950 and 2019. Seasonal (pre-monsoon, monsoon, post-monsoon and winter season) and annual average rainfalls are analyzed to find climate variability and possible trends using parametric method (linear regression analysis). The rainfall trend analysis in Bihar will help the planners to understand the recent scenario of climate change in this state. Existence of trend is being evident from parametric method. Results revealed that except for pre-monsoon season, trends of rainfalls in monsoon, post-monsoon and winter seasons are decreasing including the annual average rainfall during last 70 years.


Keywords: Climate change, Linear regression analysis, Monsoon, Seasonal and annual rainfall, Trend analysis
