Risk assessment of climate change in the West Bank was evaluated at various return periods given the available rainfall and temperature data for 1997 to 2020 from six weather stations. Results show that the West Bank rainfall and temperatures will be increased due to climate change’s potential impacts. The rainfall in Jenin and Nablus will be highly affected by climate change whereas Jericho and Jerusalem temperatures will be highly increased due to climate change impact. The obtained results are of high value and could be used by decision makers to develop proper climate change adaptation strategies in Palestine.
