This study aims to determine trends in winter, pre-monsoon, monsoon, post-monsoon seasons and annual at nine stations of Sangli district. The data used consists of season wise and station wise rainfall for the period 1981-2012. Non-parametric statistical tools such as Sen's estimator of slope and Mann-Kendall trend test was used to estimate the magnitude of trend. The post-monsoon time series of rainfall in Jath and Kavathe- Mahankal stations were observed to be statistically significant (p < 0.10, p < 0.15). The downward trends are observed at the Atpadi and Tasgaon stations, but these trends were statistically insignificant. | | Keywords : | | |
