Lecture-2-Trend Analysis of Hydro-Meterological Data.

Abstract

Water is indispensable to sustain life on Earth. It is needed in large volumes virtually in any human activity. Therefore, adverse changes in availability of water, in both quantity and quality contexts (too little, too much, too dirty) are of considerable concern. Changes in climatic variables, such as temperature and precipitation, have significant impacts on water resources and hence on societies and ecosystems.
