Temporal climate variability and its effects: land use planning contributions to the northern coast of Bahía Blanca estuary, Argentina

This research paper analyzes temporal climate variability on the northern coast of the Bahía Blanca estuary in Argentina from 1960 to 2014 to inform land-use planning and improve population quality of life.

• Between 1960 and 2014, the average air temperature increased by 0.9 ºC, while the maximum average wind speed decreased by 7.5 km h-1 during the specific period of 1986-2010.
• Relative humidity and precipitation exhibited wet and dry cycles that correspond to the occurrence of El Niño and La Niña events.
• The analysis of climate variability in the region provided the foundation for creating a sustainable land management plan.
