Drought is one of the natural phenomena which occur in all climates in different parts of the world. Iran is located at dry belt of the world. Increasing of desertification, drought reoccurrence and destruction by human in this geographical place needs to more studies on spatial and temporal trend of rainfall. In this study, trends of climatic drought during 1975-76 / 2004-05 in seasonal and yearly time scales were evaluated at 50 synoptic stations in Iran using a new drought index, RDI (Reconnaissance Drought Index) and Mann-Kendall non-parametric test, at 90 and 95% confidence levels. Results showed that among 62 stations, in which RDI was calculated for, 89% had an ascending trend and results of Mann-Kendall non-parametric test on annual values of RDI showed that among 21 stations, 76% of them had a negative trend and 24% had a significant positive trend. Based on results of this study, there is an increasing drought trend at all time scales in Iran.
