Abstract:
By the method of two phase regression (TPR), using temperature dataset and the information of the meteorological station’s historical evolution from 1961 to 2008, the temperature series of 74 stations in Shaanxi Province were detected and adjusted. The results have shown that: station relocation has influence on the homogeneity of temperature series in Shaanxi Province; there are few station relocations in the northern Shaanxi and more in central and southern Shaanxi; the temperature series at 24 stations are apparently inhomogeneous because of station relocation, and among them the temperature series at 12 stations are adjusted. This work makes the temperature series as homogeneous as possible over Shaanxi Province.
