Figure 3.
The figure contains eight time-series plots arranged in two groups. The upper four plots show dry season rainfall at Luang Prabang, Kratie, Pakse, and Tan Chau from 2000 to 2024. The vertical axis ranges from 0 to 750 millimetres. All four stations show fluctuating observed rainfall with decreasing Sen slope trends. The Sen slopes are minus 2.1 at Luang Prabang, minus 1.7 at Kratie, minus 3.6 at Pakse, and minus 2.8 at Tan Chau. The lower four plots show rainy season rainfall at the same stations. The vertical axis ranges from 0 to 3000 millimetres. Luang Prabang, Pakse, and Tan Chau show decreasing Sen slope trends of minus 14.8, minus 24.9, and minus 16.8, respectively. Kratie shows an increasing Sen slope trend of 5.8. Observed rainfall varies from year to year at all stations.Rainfall trends at (a) Luang Prabang, (b) Kratie, (c) Pakse and (d) Tan Chau in the dry season (upper) and the rainy season (below) during 2000–2024
