Abstract

Climate change is an event that has significant effects as direct or indirect on ecosystem and living things. In order to be prepared for the effect of climate change, it is necessary to anticipate these changes and take measures for this change. Therefore, many studies have been carried out on changes in climate parameters in recent years. The most common method used in these studies is trend methods. Innovative Polygon Trend Analysis (IPTA) and Trend Polygon Star Concept are trend analysis methods. IPTA Method divides data series into two as first and second data set and analyzes these two data sets by comparing them with each other. Trend Polygon Star Concept analyzes distance between two months in data set in graph, which is result of IPTA, and shows analysis result by dividing it into four regions. Therefore, in this study, monthly average temperature data are analyzed by using this two-polygon method. This data set is for 22 years (1996–2017). Polygon graphics were created as a result of study. Besides, trend slopes and lengths of temperature data with IPTA Method were calculated. The values of graphs created with Trend Polygon Star Concept Method on x- and y-axis were given in a table. When the results of both analysis methods were examined for a station, the following results were observed. For example, a regular polygon was not seen in arithmetic mean and standard deviation graphs of IPTA Method of Bandirma Station. Besides, when general evaluation of arithmetic mean analysis results was examined an increasing trend in most months. When arithmetic average graph created by Trend Polygon Star Concept Method of Bandirma Station was examined, transition between two months was seen first and third region. When standard deviation graph was examined, transitions between two months were seen in all four regions.
