Identifying Trend Patterns of Mean Relative Humidity in Isfahan Province
Increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere not only cause global warming but also cause changes in the behavior of meteorological parameters such as moisture in the air. The purpose of this research is to identify patterns of mean relative humidity in Isfahan in the past half a century. In this re...
