Abstract
Climate fluctuation is a typical merit of climate in Iraq , in terms of temperature degrees and annual precipitation . Moreover , spatial variations in temperature and amount of rain are well recorded through time . The study aims to explore this phenomena , querying its impacts on the extension of climate regions . Nineteen metrological stations were chosen , covering almost Iraq's area , and monitoring weather features for the period 1970 – 2000. The collected raw data were transformed to standardized scores , to indicate the degree of deviance from the mean , and pick up the extreme ones .
Climate regions delineated according to Kopen formula , indicating four regions : wet , semi-arid , arid , and dry . The spatial extension of these regions do not coincided with those indicated by the study . they are differ in terms of area and orientation . ArcGIS package used to project these differences , calculating the areas covered by each climate type .
In order to map the results , the probability of occurrence of each climate type was calculated for each station . Mean that for each station, the probability of being in any one of the four types of climate was calculated . The results show that Sulaimania station has a (92.9%) chance to classify as wet , and (7.1%) to regard as semi-arid . Singar station exemplify the mid point between wet and semi-arid regions due to its records , (43.3%) for both types . Khanaqin fall in a semi-arid area with (0.733) probability degree . Nasseria is another example of arid and dry region with (0.5) probability for each . Najaf and Dewania recorded (66.7%) of being in dry region . Basra has a chance of (60%) to be arid region .
