Abstract
The climate indices demonstrate temporal and spatial variability of large-scale ocean–atmosphere patterns. This study has been carried out to analyze the streamflow data in Turkey to understand the effects of climate indices such as the Southern Oscillation (SO), the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and the Arctic Oscillation (AO). The periodical relationship of the streamflow data of Turkey over different atmospheric oscillations was investigated. For this purpose, the average annual and seasonal flows at the current 72 stations in other regions of Turkey have been studied. In this context, the correlation analysis determined the relationship between NAO, AO, SO indices, and stream-flows. Besides, the original observed data were separated into parts by discrete wavelet transform to obtain the periodic components. The correlations between the found periodical components and atmospheric indices were also examined. The correlations between the streamflow and the AO/NAO showed a strong negative relationship during the annual/winter and spring periods, especially in western Turkey. Besides, the periodic components showed us the multi-annual connections between the global indices and the streamflow data of Turkey.
期刊介绍:
Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics accepts original research papers for publication following the recommendations of a review panel. The emphasis lies with the following topic areas:
- atmospheric dynamics and general circulation;
- synoptic meteorology;
- weather systems in specific regions, such as the tropics, the polar caps, the oceans;
- atmospheric energetics;
- numerical modeling and forecasting;
- physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere, including radiation, optical effects, electricity, and atmospheric turbulence and transport processes;
- mathematical and statistical techniques applied to meteorological data sets
Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics discusses physical and chemical processes - in both clear and cloudy atmospheres - including radiation, optical and electrical effects, precipitation and cloud microphysics.
