Statistical descriptive analysis of three climate variables; Precipitation, temperature and relative humidity. Study cases (Innaouene watershed; Morocco)

Hydrological data are mandatory for the elaboration of studies related to water management. Statistical analysis is a crucial step for the grasping of the distribution of data range. The presented study consists on applying statistical descriptive analysis on three climate variable; precipitation, temperature and relative humidity. Two gages stations were used; Bab Marzouka and Idriss First in Innaouene watershed. The obtained results underlines that the temporal variation exposes an overall rising trend in the temperature and a decreasing trend in the rainfall and relative humidity over the fours studied decades, it also uncovers the intra-seasonal fluctuation, humid and rainy in the winter and sec and dry in the summer, the autumn and the spring are considered as transition season where the temperature is moderated. The spatial variation is marked by a slight decreasing in precipitation and increasing of temperature moving from the middle part of the watershed to the downstream, which could be explained by the topographic variation and its impact on the climate. High altitude are generally marked by high precipitation and lower temperature comparing to lowlands areas.
