Climate Change Chart of Kanchanaburi, Thailand

Overview of climate changes

Temperature changes

Averaged across calendar months, monthly mean temperature shows a difference of +0.93 °C in the more recent period; this is an unweighted comparison of monthly means, not a day-weighted annual average or a measure of daytime maximum temperatures. The largest monthly increase was in May, with a difference of +1.48 °C. This identifies the greatest increase among the supplied monthly differences, rather than suggesting every month changed by the same amount.

Changes in rainfall

Averaged across calendar months, mean daily rainfall had a difference of +0.32 mm/day in the more recent period. This unweighted comparison of monthly means describes an overall monthly pattern, not a day-weighted annual average or a monthly rainfall total. The largest monthly increase in mean daily rainfall occurred in October, at a difference of +2.51 mm/day. By contrast, the largest monthly decrease was in July, with a difference of -1.57 mm/day; these month-specific changes show that the overall mean difference does not describe every month.

Changes in sunshine duration

Averaged across calendar months, mean daily sunshine duration had a difference of -0.35 hours/day in the more recent period. This is an unweighted comparison of monthly means, rather than a day-weighted annual average. The largest monthly decrease in mean daily sunshine duration was in August, with a difference of -1.06 hours/day. This marks the most pronounced monthly decrease among the supplied differences and should not be read as the same change applying to every month.
