英文摘要 | Droughts and climate change are causing severe and persistent dust storms in the arid and hot regions. The potential existence of significant relationships between the Oceanic Ni & ntilde;o Index (ONI), Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), and the MERRA-2 dust column mass density data are thus investigated in the State of Kuwait during 1990-2021 as a study case in the hot and arid regions. The findings show that the correlation starts from ONI-DJF (December-January-February) with the Pearson test value of -0.36 and increasing to a value of -0.55 on ONI-AMJ (April-May-June), the same results were obtained when applying the Spearman correlation test. The correlation exists between the July dust column mass density and IOD-January with a value of -0.484 and - 0.544 over Pearson and ' 'Spearman's test, respectively, all estimated p-values are lower than 0.05. The results of the One-Way ANOVA show that the output is pretty straightforward and statistically significant at p > 0.05, which was confirmed by the nonparametric Kruskal-Walli's test and Mann-Whitney Test. This considerable correlation means that active dust storms are linked with La Ni & ntilde;a, while light dust storms occur during the El Ni & ntilde;o event. A positive correlation occurs between precipitation and ONI - SON (September-October-November), while a negative correlation is found between precipitation and IOD-July. Our preliminary findings in this paper indicate that an appearance of -0.7 degrees C in ONI-DJF could serve as a definitive marker of the La Nina phase and an indicator for at-risk communities to prepare for the expected activity dust storm. |
