ABOUT THE VARIATIONS OF PRECIPITATION AND TEMPERATURE EVOLUTION IN THE ROMANIAN BLACK SEA LITTORAL

Abstract

Abstract. The article reports the results of the analyses of the annual precipitation and mean annual temperatures evolution at Constanta meteorological station for the period 1961–2009. The break points have been detected and the existence of the trends of extreme climate indices was studied. An increasing trend of the annual mean temperature especially after 1998 and a relative stationary trend of the precipitation were detected. Also, we address the self-organized criticality of data and the multifractal properties of the daily precipitation and temperature series.
