Abstract

A database of average monthly air temperature and atmospheric precipitation has been created for seven meteorological stations for the period between 1936 and 2009. It was used to study current trends of climate change in the Kazbegi area, a mountain region in the Greater Caucasus. Changes in temperature and precipitation are described by circular regression equations and rates of these changes are identified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
