英文摘要 | This study describes temperature and precipitation trends in the two National Parks located in the two highest mountain ranges on the Iberian Peninsula: the Sierra Nevada (Sierra Nevada National Park, SN) and the Pyrenees (Aig & uuml;estortes i Sant Maurici National Park, ASM). Special focus is placed on analysing disparities between the lowlands and the highlands, as well as the agreement between observational data and grid data (IBERIA01 and E-OBS). For this purpose, a quality-controlled and homogeneity-adjusted database of the daily maximum temperature, minimum temperature and precipitation (SMADS database) has been generated. Regional trends in mean temperature indicate that warming in ASM (0.17 degrees Cdecade(-1)) was greater than in the Sierra Nevada (SN) (0.13 degrees Cdecade(-1)) in the longest joint period, 1930-2020. For annual precipitation, the trends over the past nine decades were negative, although not significantly. Only the summer in SN showed a significant negative trend, which has intensified in recent decades to -13.4%decade(-1) for 1975-2020. A parallel evolution was observed in the annual mean temperature of the highlands (>1500 m) and lowlands (<1500 m) of ASM, with a common trend of 0.17 degrees Cdecade(-1), while in SN negative elevation-dependent warming was detected. Differences between lowlands and highlands were also noted in precipitation trends in both mountain ranges: a positive trend in precipitation was found in the lowlands while in the highlands practically null trends (ASM) or decreasing precipitation trends (SN) were detected. The comparison of the Spanish Mountain Adjusted Daily Series (SMADS) results with the IBERIA01 and E-OBS grid series yielded differences no greater than +/- 0.2 degrees Cdecade(-1). No notable differences were detected between the regional trends calculated with observational series or with grid series. These results worsened when the differences in the trends detected in the individual observed temperature series were compared against the corresponding grid series. |
