Study of the Spatio-Temporal Changing in Rainfall of Dharashiv District

Abstract : Rainfall is a vital component of the hydrological cycle, and its variability has significant impacts on agriculture, water resources, and ecosystems. This study investigates the spatio-temporal changes in rainfall in Dharashiv District, Maharashtra, India. Daily rainfall data from 2011 to 2021 were analyzed using statistical and geospatial techniques. The results show significant spatial and temporal variability in rainfall, with a decreasing trend in annual rainfall. The study identifies areas with high and low rainfall concentrations and highlights the importance of understanding rainfall variability for sustainable water management and agricultural planning.
