“…7a-f, it is shown that the annual rainfall of the equatorial region was characterized by positive trend though graphically not conclusive for Kenya and DRC. Using station-based observed rainfall, Kizza et al (2009) and Nyeko-Ogiramoi et al (2013) also found that trends in rainfall of Lake Victoria basin in the equatorial region of the RNRCs were mainly positive. However, from Sudan up to Egypt (Fig.…”

“…A high-jacked portion of the said attention is seen in an overwhelming concern sparked off to investigate whether or not there are changes in the hydro-meteorological variables. For only the years 2013-2014, examples of studies related to the said changes include Lavender and Abbs (2013), Nyeko-Ogiramoi et al (2013), Paruolo et al (2014), Ş en (2014), Tao et al (2014). The common practice of trend analysis in hydro-meteorology is to consider a long-term series as a whole.…”

“…The motivation for having different locations lies in the different characteristics of the slowly varying signal. While Westdorpe is characterized by a weak precipitation seasonal cycle and a little sensitivity to long term natural oscillations, Gulu experiences long dry and wet periods and has known some strong inter-annual variation in the previous decades (Nyeko-Ogiramoi et al 2013;Willems 2011, 2012;Willems 2013). Daily data are used, allowing estimations of extreme precipitation events.…”

“…Clearly, the studies reported in [10,16,17] relate to the 20th century hydrometeorology research on Australia, UK and Italy respectively. The hydrometeorology of sub-Saharan Africa has been demonstrated by numerous studies [18][19][20][21][22]. In [19], Conway et al, used river basin rainfall series and extensive river flow records from nine major international river basins to characterize spatial and temporal variability in sub-Saharan African water resources over the period .…”
