Geographical analysis of repeat heat waves in Kurdistan region for the period 2000-2017
At this study, the researcher has analyzed the changes of heat waves at Kurdistan region through (2000–2017). at recent decades heat waves increased at all placed in the world. heat wave is increase maximum temperature over than the average monthly maximum temperature for this month at extend for 3 days consecutive at least. The study found that 152 heat waves repeat at Kurdistan region, that is 114 waves were shortwave with %75 from total, 34 waves medium and only 4 waves were the type of long waves. About severity of the temperature of heat waves the study also, found different types, for example in all heat waves about %79 or 120 waves were from where there are bring this, 30 waves strong and only 2 waves were extreme. About of the hot days over the period of time include 1105 threshold heat waves, in this number 685 days were in the type of the hot day heat waves, and 420 days were the Temperature fluctuation hot days. As well as the paper found that the annual repetition heat waves vary from month to month, and the season to season, it was found that heat waves were highest in spring and lowest in summer. The most geographical distribution of system atmospheric pressure effect on the weather and heat waves in study area is Indian low seasonal pressure.
