Abstract:

The study aims to identify climate change in temperature in the southern part of Iraq. Three stations were selected to represent the south-eastern part of Iraq namely Basrah, Amara, Nasiriyah, and through the analysis of time series from 1980 to 2012 to determine the overall natural trends: normal, great and minor temperatures. It has been shown that there has been a downward trend in some years, while in some years the trend has been on the rise, but the general trend in the rates of change has been positive.
