Abstract
Global warming intensifies the water cycle. The intensified water cycle is considered to be among the reasons for the increment of floods in several regions on Earth. The floods and the ensuing disaster situations, which have increased over the past year, have caused massive material damage and economic losses to the Bulgarian population. The occurrence of floods was directly associated with the amount of rainfall in a given period. Therefore, the present study aims to assess the trends in rainfall changes in Bulgaria and their correlation with the floods over 8 years: from 2010 to 2017.
Highlights
In recent decades, climate change has been one of the most discussed topics in society
The increase in average seasonal and average annual temperatures is expected to be higher in the tropics than in the average latitudes [3]
Roshan et al [10] have found that global warming influences the increment of precipitation, especially in cold periods
Summary
Climate change has been one of the most discussed topics in society. Global warming is one of the most visible manifestations of climate change. The 21st Century Climate Forecasts [1] are based on the results from numerical climate models that use available data for present and past periods and apply different scenarios.
