Abstract

The present study seeks to investigate the statistics obtainedfrom Dezful Meteorological Station througha 15-year-long period from1990 to 2005 to record the microclimate changes of Karkheh Dam Lake in two periods-before thelake flooding from 1990 to 1998 and after theflooding from 1999 to2005. In processing the weather data of Dezful in the longitude 24º 42? andlatitude24º 42? , the changes of climate were represented in the annual average temperature, relative humidity, annual total rainfall, the mean of dew point temperature, days with precipitation and days with storm in two times-before and after the impoundment through comparative figures. The results showed that among all the above-mentioned components, the total annual rainfall and the storm days decreased after the flooding compared to the yearsprior to the flooding. Elements such as the average annual temperature, relative humidity, dew point temperature, rainy days and storm increased in theyears after flooding compared to the previous years,the results of figures, data and changes before and after flooding and the effects of microclimate revealed that it caused increases and decreases in some climate elements. In the current study, due to increase and decrease inthe elements, it emphasized on the optimal use of change statistics of the Dam Lake and microclimate so that the microclimate is balanced to the benefits of the local region.
