| Zusammenfassung |
In this study, the mean rain intensity (mm/h) in Athens and Thessaloniki,
Greece, is examined during the period 1930–2007. The daily meteorological
data were acquired from the meteorological stations of the National
Observatory of Athens (Thissio) and the University Campus of Thessaloniki.
These stations have recorded the longest and reliable daily rain time series
in Greece.
The trends of the annual and seasonal mean, as well as the maximum rain
intensity, are analyzed. On the one hand, all of the time series in Athens
present higher figures of mean rain intensity during the period 1990–2007
compared to the period 1930–1990. On the other hand, regarding the time
series in Thessaloniki, the mean rain intensity remains in lower level than
the respective one in Athens without significant trend at the Confidence
Level (CL) 95%. As far as the annual and seasonal maximum rain
intensity is concerned, similar patterns appear. However, the summer maximum
rain intensity in Thessaloniki remains at higher levels till 1970's. The
atmospheric circulation patterns for the extreme rain intensities show
intense negative anomalies centred over Greece and positive anomalies to the
north, with centre over Scandinavia. |
