“…The results of the research conducted so far indicate that during the year in Poland, cold stress, with various intensity, predominates among thermal stress categories, and thermal discomfort due to heat stress at UTCI>26ºC is recorded far less frequently [33,[40][41][42]. Additionally, in the coastal zone heat felt by people is eased by the cooling effect of the Baltic sea and wind, as the results obtained in Gdańsk indicate.…”

“…The heat wave in July 2006 afected other cities as well. For example in Szczecin, the frequency of calls for emergency ambulance service increased by 20.5% in that period [33]. Generally, a pattern can be observed in subsequent years: residents of the center of Gdańsk (W) experience thermal stress due to the excess "heat," whereas resident of the outskirts of Gdańsk (J) experience thermal stress due to the excess "cold.…”

“…Much lower correla- According to data presented in Table 3, this relationship is stronger in situations of CAQI>75. Slightly stronger statistical relationships between biothermal conditions (expressed as indices ET and UTCI) and selected air pollution was found by Nidzgorska-Lencewicz and Mąkosza [33] in Szczecin. In the hot July 2006 and 2010 the variability of an increased O 3 immission was accounted for by fluctuations of ET index of 55 and 59%, respectively.…”

Streszczenie. Dni charakterystyczne pod względem termicznym oznaczają dni z temperaturą powietrza (maksymalną lub minimalną) przekraczającą określone wartości progowe. Dni charakteryzujące się szczególnie niską lub wysoką temperaturą powietrza mają znaczenie dla zdrowia i życia człowieka oraz wielu dziedzin gospodarki, np. rolnictwa, energetyki i turystyki. Celem pracy była analiza zmienności i częstości występowania dni charakterystycznych pod względem termicznym w latach 1961-2015 w mezoregionie Równina Pyrzycko-Stargardzka. Wykorzystany w opracowaniu materiał źródłowy obejmował maksymalne i minimalne dobowe wartości temperatury powietrza ze stacji agrometeorologicznej w Lipniku, zlokalizowanej w centralnej części Równiny. W celu określenia dni charakterystycznych pod względem termicznym wykorzystano klasyfikację Kossowskiej-Cezak (2014). Stwierdzono, że znacznie częściej występowały dni charakterystyczne pod względem termicznym dla chłodnej połowy roku (24,0%) niż dla ciepłej (8,9%). Uzyskane wyniki wskazują na istotny statystycznie ujemny trend liczby dni z przymrozkiem, mroźnych i bardzo mroźnych oraz na dodatni trend liczby dni gorących, upalnych i bardzo upalnych. Największym istotnym statystycznie spadkiem odznaczały się dni mroźne (3,6 na 10 lat), a największym wzrostem -dni gorące (2,3 na 10 lat). Wykazano, że w analizowanym wieloleciu najwięcej było dni z przymrozkiem (62,4) i dni gorących (26,7). Stwierdzono również, że przeciętnie w roku notuje się 15,7 nocy mieszczących się w wybranych wartościach progowych, z tym że większość stanowią noce ciepłe. Wykazano także istotny statystycznie wzrost liczby takich nocy o 2,5 na 10 lat.

“…However, contemporary warming is causing changes in the duration of the thermic seasons of the year. Though the dates of onset of the thermic winter, as determined on the basis of decadal or monthly values of temperature, do not show a clear tendency towards earlier or later occurrence, in many regions of the country a significant tendency towards shorter winters can be observed (Kossowska-Cezak 2005;Woś 2006;Nidzgorska-Lencewicz & Mąkosza 2008;Skowera & Kopeć 2008). Moreover, the increase in temperature occurred most of all in January and February and, according to the study by Kożuchowski and Żmudzka (2001) and Marsz (2005), December is marked by a clear cooling which is stronger in the eastern part of Poland than in the west.…”

The study is concerned with the temporal and spatial characterisation of atmospheric thaw variability in Poland. The phenomenon was described on the basis of mean daily values of air temperature for the winter months October-March over the period 1960/61-2009/10 obtained from 34 meteorological stations of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW). It has been shown that atmospheric thaws occur on average as soon as 10 days after the first instance of a decrease in temperature below 0°C lasting at least 3 days. Atmospheric thaws are a constant element of the climate in Poland and occur with a frequency of 30-45% of the calendar winter (December-February) and 30% to almost 50% of the period of the thermic winter, that is the period between the date of the first decrease of mean daily air temperature below 0°C with a duration of at least three days and the date of its permanent increase above 0°C. Thaws are most common in the western part of Poland, particularly in the north-west, which, despite having the latest onset of the first thaws, is characterised by a high proportion of winter thaws of a length of 30 days and more. The spatial distribution of thaw is strongly dependent on longitude and less on height above sea level. Multiyear variability of thaw days is determined by atmospheric circulation. In the whole country (apart from the mountains) the correlation between the frequency of thaw occurrence in January, February, and March and the Jones NAO index is statistically significant at a significance level of α=0.01, and coefficients of determination fluctuate in general from 40 to 50% in January and February, and from 20 to 25% in March. The role of circulation expressed by NAO index in the explanation of the variability of thaw occurrence was statistically insignificant Key words atmospheric thaws • thaw periods ≥10, 20, 30 days • thaw-start and thaw-end date • temporal variability • spatial distribution • NAO index
