Abstract
Hydrological parameters are heavily affected by climate changes and human activities. To confirm and take actions against such affects and changes caused by these affects trend analyzes must be performed. In this study, Linear Trend and Modified Mann-Kendall trend analyzes were performed using the annual average temperature data (̊C) and the annual total precipitation data (mm) between 1960-2020 of Burdur, Isparta, Kahramanmaraş, Muğla, Antalya, Mersin, Adana, Osmaniye, Antakya stations. The study concluded in increasing trends in temperature data (8 out of 9 stations) and no trend in precipitation data.
