Trends In Temperature And Rainfall Extreme Changes In Bangkok Metropolitan Area, Sangchan Limjirakan, Atsamon Limsakul, Thavivongse Sriburi
Applied Environmental Research
Trends in temperature and rainfall extremes in the Bangkok Metropolitan area were analyzed on the basis of 3 high-quality series of daily data. A set of core climate extreme indices recommended by the WMOCCL/ CLIVAR Expert Team on Climate Change Detection, Monitoring and Indices (ETCCDMI) that measures many aspects of a changing climate including changes in intensity, frequency and duration of temperature and rainfall events was computed. Analysis of these indices provided clear evidence that different aspects of temperature and rainfall extremes in the Bangkok Metropolis exhibited significant changes during 1965- 2006. The region has been clearly warming over the …

Observed Changes In Daily Rainfall Extreme Along Thailand's Coastal Zones, Atsamon Limsakul, Sangchan Limjirakan, Thavivongse Sriburi
Applied Environmental Research
Trends in daily rainfall extreme along Thailand's coastal zones were examined, based on 28 high-quality series of daily rainfall data observed at the stations along the Andaman Sea Coast (ASC), the Gulf of Thailand's western coast (GoTw) and the Gulf of Thailand's eastern coast (GoTe). A set of core climate extreme indices recommended by the WMO-CCL/CLIVAR Expert Team on Climate Change Detection, Monitoring and Indices (ETCCDMI) that measures different aspects of rainfall extreme events such as wetness and dryness conditions, frequency and intensity rainfall events was calculated. Analysis of these indices revealed notable changes in rainfall extreme events along Thailand's …
