| Zusammenfassung |
| The aim of this paper is to analyse indices of extreme precipitation in
Krivošije, Montenegro, the wettest Mediterranean region, from the period
1951–2007 and their relationships with atmospheric circulation using
"SynopVis Grosswetterlagen" (SVG) series. Data from two stations were
analysed, namely Crkvice (42°34'N and 18°39'E) and Herceg Novi
(42°27'N and 18°31'E). Four indices of precipitation extremes (SDII,
R75p, R95p, R95pTOT) were assessed including number of dry days. The
results suggest that the number of days with precipitation decreased. To
analyse the relationship between extreme precipitation events and
circulation types we have used an efficiency coefficient (Ec). Regarding
relation to atmospheric circulation, westerly, southwesterly and
northwesterly circulation types with anticyclonic features over Central
Europe are more frequent for dry days (days with R<1.0 mm) and northerly,
easterly and southerly types for wet and very wet days (R75p and R95p
indices). The types with cyclonic condition over Central Europe show a large
proportion of wet and very wet days. Also, activity of Genoa cyclogenesis
and orographic influence over a small area are the main reasons for the high
precipitation amounts recorded in the Krivošije region (Crkvice). |
