U(t)(solid line) and U 0 (t)(dashed line) from the Mann-Kendall test for precipitation (mm) of
Barcelonnette station, corresponding to the 95 % significant level (Barcelonnette station)
Barcelonnette station. The intersection point of forward and backward curves
indicates the starting time of a sharp increase in the maximum temperature time
series that started in 1994. After 2005, the trend of maximum temperature becomes
significant. Abrupt or jump points are distinguished in 1993, 1994, and 1995.
From the results, it could be concluded that although there is a significant
downward trend in precipitation (Barcelonnette station) and inversely, an upward
