SEÑALES DE CAMBIO CLIMÁTICO EN LA PROVINCIA DE SANTA FE. TENDENCIAS DEL PERÍODO 1960-2019
Abstract
During the last decades, an increase in extreme weather events, precipitation and warm nights has been observed, while a decrease in cold nights and days with frost has been recorded in the central region of Argentina. The objective of this study is to evaluate the climate change indices derived from temperature and precipitation of greatest relevance to the province of Santa Fe (Argentina), based on the methodologies and indices proposed by the team of experts in detection, monitoring and indices of climate change. Daily data from six locations in the province of Santa Fe were used in the period evaluated (1960-2019). Positive annual trends were found in the number of warm and tropical nights, minimum daily temperature, days with heavier rain, and amount of annual precipitation; On the other hand, negative trends were manifested in the number of days with frost and in the daily thermal amplitude. The results found are consistent with numerous works related to the study of climate change in recent decades in multiple stations located in South America and central Argentina.
