Abstract
THE EFFECT OF CHANGE RATES AND THE GENERAL TREND OF THE ANNUAL AND MONTHLY RATE İN THE SELECTED CLİMATE ELEMENTS (TEMPERATURE AND WİND SPEED) ON THE REALİTY OF DESERTİFİCATİON İN IRAQ
Looking for this study with climate change, and all the study indicates that the current change of the global climate is caused by a major factor, which is the human factor, and natural factors did not cause any role in bringing about these changes, so there is very high confidence in considering the net release of human activities since 1970 A cause of the warming phenomenon, and it is very likely that most of the observed increase in average temperatures since the middle of the twentieth century is due to the concentrations of greenhouse gases, and statistical methods are one of the most important means used to highlight climate change. In order to clarify the changes occurring in the climatic elements, to reveal the general trend and rate of change, then calculate the general trend of the annual rates of time series (for the selected climate elements, which is temperature and wind speed).
