Abstract
Evaluation of cold wave events over Indo-Gangetic Plain in India
Highlights
The main objective of the present study is to analyse the trends of the cold wave as well as severe cold wave events in the winter months from November to March during the period of 1951-2013 over Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) region
The gridded minimum temperature data of India Meteorological Department (IMD) at a resolution of 1°x1°over Indo-Gangetic Plain of India (IGP)has been analysedfor the period of 1951-2013
The average of minimum temperature for daily basis per year during the months November to February has been taken to calculate the normal minimum temperature and departure of daily minimum temperature from this normal minimum temperature.In the present study, the minimum temperature overIGP during the period 1951-2013 has been used to investigate the frequency of cold wave (CW) and severe cold wave (SCW) as per IMD criteria
Summary
The main objective of the present study is to analyse the trends of the cold wave as well as severe cold wave events in the winter months from November to March during the period of 1951-2013 over Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) region. 30-year period (Tricadal) variation of cold wave and severe cold wave event during 1951-2013 over IGP
