Abstract
This study has been carried out to investigate the impact of climate change over Pakistan and its surrounding areas (60 ˚- 80 ˚ E and 20 ˚- 40 ˚ N) during winter seasons (December-February). Variability in three meteorological parameters such as: rainfall; air temperature; and moisture transport, has been investigated. Global Pre-cipitation Climatology Center (GPCC) data for precipitation and National Centre for Environ-mental Prediction (NCEP) reanalysis data for computation of Moisture Flux Convergence (MFC) and temperature have been used for the period of 49 years (1961 to 2009). The study period has been divided into three phases on basis of pre-
