Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of daily maximum, minimum and annual average diurnal temperature range. Three stations in XiLiuGou basin are analyzed to detect significant daily time trend from1969 to 2010. The homogeneity of the series is tested by means of the Standard Normal Homogeneity, the Buishand range and the Pettitt tests. The lack of randomness of the series, suggesting time trends, is also investigated by means of the Von Neumann ratio test. The results indicate that the empirical statistics departs from the 99% confidence level bands around 1986 years, most point of intersection before 1980s are in Tmax and Tmin. The most relevant period with negative Tmin trends is observed from November to March. Most positive temperature trends are general slightly more moderate from May to November for Tmax.
