“…It appears that this is the case for Alaska and Siberia south of the Arctic Circle (Groisman et al 2005b). In Siberia, we do not observe a substantial increase in summer precipitation during the past 50 years (Gruza et al 1999;Sun and Groisman 2000). Furthermore, a redistribution of precipitation (increase of heavy rainfall and decrease in days with precipitation) was found over the Asian part of Russia (Sun and Groisman 2000).…”

“…Significant changes in heavy precipitation events were reported over Fennoscandia and Russia (cf., also Groisman et al 2005a,b) while over the Asian part of Russia no discernable increase in total precipitation has been seen in the past five decades (cf., also Gruza et al 1999). The frequency of unusually cold nights and days (based on T min and T max daily data) decreased while the frequency of unusually warm nights and days increased (at nighttime, the changes were more prominent than in the daytime (cf., also Frich et al 2002).…”

“…With readjustment and updates resulting from this work, the refined GRO archive is available from the NCDC website for the 1891 -1999 period (TD-3720). Gruza et al (1999) compiled their archive from several sources ordered by a set of priorities. The first priority was given to the 243 long-term stations of the monthly precipitation archive prepared in the Department of Climatology of the World Data Center B for Meteorology at Obninsk, Russia, including 101 stations designated for International Exchange (Archive TEMPOS, WDC-B, 1989).…”

Rain gauge changes, changes in the number of observations per day, and inconsistent corrections to observed precipitation data during the 20th century of the meteorological network of the former Soviet Union make it difficult to address the issue of century time-scale precipitation changes. In this paper, we use daily and sub-daily synoptic data to account for the effects of these changes on the instrumental homogeneity of precipitation measurements over the Russian permafrost-free zone (RPF, most populous western and central parts of the country). Re-adjustments that were developed during this assessment allow us to (a) develop a system of scale corrections that remove the inhomogeneity owing to wetting/observation time changes over most of the former Soviet Union during the past century, and (b) to estimate precipitation trends over the RPF, reconciling previously contradictory results. The trend that emerges is an increase of about 5% per century. This estimate can be further refined after a more comprehensive set of supplementary data (precipitation type and wind) and metadata (information about the exposure of meteorological sites) is employed.

“…The conducted studies reveals strong global indicators of climate change such as the rise in sea level on the order of 1 to 2 mm/year over the last century (Parker, 1991), increased of mean annual temperature (Parker, 1991;Aguilar et al, 2005;Gruza et al, 1999), especially during summer time (Parker, 1991), decrease in the total precipitation (Gruza et al, 1999), snow melting (Kaiser, 2000), decreased in cloudiness cover (Kaiser, 2000), influence on clinical malaria rates (Yé et al, 2007), and increased the patient's admissions due to many prevalent human diseases, such as cardiovascular mortality and respiratory illnesses due to extreme heat waves (Patz et al, 2005).…”

This article aims to investigate the possible trend in precipitation and temperature in the agricultural areas in Jordan. Six meteorological stations locate in the agricultural areas in Jordan were chosen to investigate the variation in precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature. In order to achieve accurate result, quality control was conducted for each station. Also the homogeneity test was conducted using Standard Normal Homogeneity Test, Pettitt and Von Neumann ratio tests. All stations passed the quality and homogeneity tests. Data were analyzed using the recommended software RClimDex to determine 27 climate indices. The obtained results indicated significant trend in many indices. The most significant trend was found for cool days, warm days, warm nights, cool nights, summer days, diurnal temperature range, and the tropical night indicators. Further studies to quantify the climate change in Jordan were recommended.
