Title

Trend Analysis of Rainfall over the Ramgad Catchment of Kumaun Himalaya

Abstract

Rainfall is one of the most significant climatological elements and a crucial component of the hydrological cycle. The present research paper studies the variations in the trend of rainfall over the Ramgad Catchment of Kumaun Himalaya, Nainital district, Uttarakhand for the period of 50 years from 1969 to 2019. In the present study, standard statistical techniques, i.e., mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation and median are applied for the trend analysis of rainfall data for the study region. Variations in monthly and seasonal rainfall are calculated, and the result indicates that the mean monthly rainfall in the Ramgad Catchment is increasing over time at a rate of about 2.38 mm. Further, the trend shows that the rainfall in the Ramgad Catchment is primarily seasonal; the month of July recorded the highest mean rainfall, while the month of November recorded the lowest mean rainfall. The variation of annual seasonal rainfall is also determined, and the findings indicate that the annual monsoon season rainfall peaked in 1980 with a total of around 1716.7 mm, while there was a minimal amount of rainfall in 1994 with 208.9 mm. Over the past few decades, the monsoon pattern in the study area has changed. The adverse effects of rainfall i.e. floods, droughts, etc. have been observed, which affects both natural and human resources. Therefore, analysis of long-term rainfall variability is very important to cope up with changing climatic conditions.
