What is it about?
The rainfall results (1901-2019) were examined and assessed using statistical techniques for Mann-Kendall’s Z-statistic and Sen’s slope estimators for assessing the impact of climate change on rainfall patterns in the Uttar Dinajpur district of West Bengal. From the estimation, it is understood that the pre-monsoon, monsoon, and winter seasons have positive trends in rainfall, whereas the post-monsoon rainfall shows a negative trend and both Mann-Kendall and Sen's slope projections depict the same.
