The evolution of precipitation on the Romanian Black Sea coast during 1965-2016, from the perspective of regional and global climate changes

Abstract

Atmospheric precipitation and air humidity are the most important meteorological parameters in characterizing the climate of a region. Global warming, among its many effects can also lead to changes in types of precipitation, which could produce a chain reaction, reducing rainfall in already dry areas. Also, the reverse effect of increasing the amounts of precipitation following the intensification of extreme phenomena is analyzed. The present study is an analysis of the precipitations on the Romanian seaside in the period 1965-2019, in order to foresee the evolution of these, compared to the multiannual averages and to make a prediction of evolution, necessary for sustainable development in this region.
