On hemispheric space scales DTR trends over about the last half-century tend to be decreasing. This paper analyzes regional scale trends in DTR for Mexico (1940-2001). <B>Our principal finding is that in recent decades (post-1970) DTR trends over Mexico are positive as maximum temperatures are warming at a significantly higher rate than minimum temperatures.</B> Regional land use and land cover changes (LCCs) are identified as potential forcing mechanisms responsible for at least part of the observed DTR behavior."Rafehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169325688704651715noreply@blogger.com
