Zusammenfassung |
Long-term time series of meteorological and hydrological observations for the 1900–2012
period provide information about climatic fluctuations in Belarus. In particular, significant
transformation of the temperature regime in Belarus has been observed only since 1970s, and
since 1989 the rate of these changes has increased.
We used simulations of the COSMO model in Climate Mode (COSMO-CLM or CCLM)
for detailed assessment of climatic transformations in Belarus. CCLM is a non-hydrostatic
regional climate model developed from the Local Model (LM) of the German Meteorological
Service by the CLM-community. The Model output (produced at the Institute of Coastal
Research of HZG; the coastDatII dataset) gives a consistent and homogeneous database used
for assessment of weather statistics and climate changes for the 1948 - 2012 period with
spatial grid size of 0.22°in rotated coordinates. NCEP1 global reanalysis was used in
simulations as forcing and boundary conditions. The observed gridded data (E-Obs v10.0;
surface air temperature and precipitation) were used for verification of the model
performance.
We calculated mean seasonal temperature over Belarus for the 1955-2012 and
1981-2012 periods of significant transformation of the Belorussian climate. The
calculations showed differences in the coastDatII and E-Obs varied within the ±0.6
to 2oC range depending on the season. We found the largest deviations in winter
(by 1.7 to 2.0oC). In spring the differences were within the 0.8 to1.0oC range, in
summer within the 0.6-0.8oC range and in autumn they were about 1.0 to 1.3oC. For
both periods, annual mean regional values differ by 0.9oC. In the annual cycle, the
E-Obs values were higher than coastDatII temperatures except the summer season,
when the CCLM-derived temperatures exceed the observations. Comparison of
seasonal temperature ranges shows a lesser amplitude in CCLM than in E-Obs.
Estimates of annual temperature trends for the 1955-2012 period according to the
E-Obs dataset are larger by 0.7oC/decade than according to the coastDatII dataset. |
