With the industrial revolution, the world is faced with serious environmental problems. The most recent and biggest of these problems is the Climate Crisis triggered by Air Pollution. In the last 100 years, our world has warmed by an average of 2oC due to increasing CO2 and other greenhouse gases, and this process is still ongoing. For this purpose, various scientific studies are being conducted and published in the literature in different parts of the world regarding the Climate Crisis. In some studies conducted in the literature, spatial and temporal changes of various meteorological parameters (temperature, precipitation, etc.) are examined and the results are examined in the light of the findings obtained. In temporal change studies, various trend analysis methods (Mann-Kendall Test, Şen's Slope Estimation Method etc.) are applied to meteorological parameters to reach various conclusions about the past, present and future of the climate crisis problem. On the other hand, various geostatistical methods (Kriging, Bayesian Estimation, Finite Difference Method etc.) are applied in the literature to determine the areal changes of various meteorological parameters. In this study, for the first time in the literature, the temporal/spatial change of the event (climate crisis) monitored by considering the spatial and temporal average change of any parameter (annual average temperature) in a region by the geostatistical analysis-based Kriging approach was examined. For this purpose, the spatial distribution of annual average temperature contours of meteorological parameters of three provinces (Golestan, Mazandaran and Gilan) located in the northern part of Iran for the years 1995, 2005, 2015 and 2023 were analyzed using the Kriging method-ArcGis software. In the light of the findings, it is shown that the annual average temperature contours in the northern part of Iran are shifting towards the north-west of the study area from year to year and this region will warm up even more in the coming years.
