contents Climate change in NE Mexico: influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation Norma Sánchez Santillán René Garduño López Rosalía Vidal Zepeda Rubén Sánchez Trejo Ciencias de la Tierra NAO Tamaulipas XX century Climate change exploratory analysis An exploratory analysis of temperature, precipitation and evaporation records, in five localities of Tamaulipas state (NE Mexico), spanning from about 30s decade of XX century until first years of the XXI, is made by means of multivaried statistical techniques. A change point is detected in1964. By comparing the period former to this year with the period 1964-2002, a significant decrease of temperature is observed in four out of the five localities, in three ones there is a light increase of precipitation and in the another two it isgreater; finally, four of them have an important decrease in evaporation. According to the Köppen´s system of climatic classification adapted to the Mexican Republic, the climatetype changed in three out of the studied localities, passing from dry to warm sub-humid. North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is analyzed as a possible cause of this behavior. Theresults suggest that the statistical methodology used is suitable for long term climate studies. 2012 artículo científico 0188-4611 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56924410002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=569 Investigaciones Geográficas (Mx) application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Investigaciones Geográficas (Mx) (México) Num.78
