“…In Ukraine, air temperature showed a large increase from 2000 to 2020, especially in the warm period of the year when extreme temperatures became more frequent in the country, as well as globally (Perkins‐Kirkpatrick & Lewis, 2020; Savchuk et al, 2018; Semenova, 2022). The observed changes in the temperature regime are confirmed by changes in atmospheric circulation in Europe, which led to an increase in the duration of sunshine (Marsz et al, 2022) and change in the characteristics of the radiation balance, including most regions of Ukraine (Rybchenko et al, 2022). In fact, the increase in temperature in Europe, as well as in Ukraine has been stronger than the global average over the last decades (Copernicus Climate Change Service, 2023).…”
