Short summary
Based on ECMWF's two reanalysis datasets, our assessment of the spatiotemporal trends revealed an average warming of 1.26 °C [0.8 to 1.8] in Turkey from 1979 to 2010. With respect to the regional trends in hydrological variables, ERA-Interim and ERA-Interim/Land revealed quite different pictures. Based on ERA-Interim/Land, which was closer to the observations, there have been no widespread and strong hydrological trends for the same period throughout the country despite the strong warming.
