A new method for modelling precipitation variability in relation to climate change

Climate change is one of the main consequences of anthropogenic activities. Since the 1950s, gradual changes and an increase in climate warming have been observed. Previous research has been indicating potential associations between climate warming and spatiotemporal changes in precipitation. Moreover, the regional patterns of precipitation have a key role in the continuous monitoring of climate characteristics and natural hazards such as floods and droughts. Therefore, precise and accurate measurements of precipitation concentration and spatiotemporal variability in their patterns are very crucial. In this study, a new method for measuring precipitation concentration is developed and applied to 54 meteorological stations in Pakistan. Furthermore, to assess the precipitation patterns, the proposed method provides solid evidence for considering the effect of temperatures under climate warming. Furthermore, using the spatial correlation between the proposed method and its competitor, a comparative analysis is made to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. Moreover, the spatial variability structure in various precipitation patterns is assessed and compared using spatial predictive maps. Outcomes associated with this research show significant deviations between the proposed method and the existing one. These findings can contribute to a better understanding of precipitation concentration in relation to climate warming.
