Application of GIS in Analysis of Temporal and Spatial Variation of Surface Air Temperature in the Rio Conchos Basin in Mexico Marcelo Somos

Introduction The warming of the climate system has become a reality by taking into account the observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global mean sea level, etc. This phenomenon is affecting the temporal and spatial distribution of the temperature.

Global Warming html

Many processes are affected by the temperature Biological processes Glacial melting Flora and Fauna development Water quality (Dissolved oxygen) Etc.

Water Quality Example

Objectives Extract the monthly values of temperature estimated by a GCM in the Conchos River Basin during three different periods (2010 to 2019, 2020 to 2029 and finally 2040 to 2049)

Objectives Use the tool model builder in order to automate the process of extraction of data from the NetCDF file Analyze the behavior of the surface air temperature for the next 40 years in the Conchos Basin

Study Area This project is focused on the Conchos river. It has a drainage area of 67,862 km2. Geographically, it is located within the coordinates 26° 03’ and 30° latitude north, and 104° to 107° West

Main Source of Data: IPCC Typically having a horizontal resolution of between 250 and 600 km

Santa Clara University Horizontal resolution of 15 by 15 km

Scenarios SRES A2: (~"higher" emissions path) Technological change and economic growth more fragmented, slower, higher population growth (In this project the Hadley United Kingdom is used)

Methodology

Methodology 5 processes per month in 12x30=360 months. That means 1800 processes.

Model builder Now 30 Processes

Results

Temporal Variation The temperature will increase between November and June The temperature will decrease between July and October.

Spatial Variation Variation of temperature between November 2010 and November 2049 November 2010
