“…Similarly, in North America and Europe, late spring frosts, in particular, cause damage to crops and trees and contribute to heavy economic losses in agriculture [27]. A great danger related to frosts occurs when plants are brought out of winter dormancy due to the earlier occurrence of spring and start the active growth stage, which is then followed by periods with lower temperatures (below 0 • C) [28][29][30]. Such periods are particularly dangerous during the most vulnerable stages of plant development, e.g., the occurrence of flower buds, flowering, or formation of fruit ovules [31][32][33].…”

“…The frosts noted in Poland are mostly of advection-radiation character, owing to the inflow of cold arctic air masses [42][43][44], and occur most frequently in April and in the 1st and 2nd decade of May [28][29][30]51]. As a general rule, frosts usually occur as singular events, but there is a possibility of a consecutive series of 2 or more days [52].…”

Air Frosts in Poland in the Thermal Growing Season (AT > 5 °C)

et al. 2023

Frosts cause damage to plants in field crops and also trees, thus contributing to heavy economic losses in agriculture. One of the consequences of climate warming is the lengthening of the thermal growing season (AT > 5 °C) and acceleration of phenological phases as well as the lengthening of the frost-free period. This favourable element allows the extension of the range of cultivated plants to include plants requiring warmth and a longer development period. The present study concerns the area of Poland. The data on mean and minimum 24-h period air temperature (200 cm above ground level—AGL) were obtained from 52 meteorological stations of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management—National Research Institute (IMGW-PIB) for the period 1971–2020. A day with air frost was identified when the recorded minimum air temperature was below 0.0 °C and the mean 24-h period air temperature was above 0.0 °C. All calculations concerning frosts were limited to the period with mean 24-h period air temperature >5 °C (the growing season) as determined with the Gumiński method. The obtained results show that in the thermal growing season (AT > 5 °C) in Poland, no statistically significant change in the average number of days with air frosts in the period 1971–2020 was found. On average, in Poland, in the years 1971–2020, a lengthening of the thermal growing season by 6.2 days over 10 years was identified. Earlier disappearance of the latest air frosts in spring was identified as 2 to 3 days over 10 years, and the later occurrence of air frosts in autumn as 1 to 4 days over 10 years. The share of severe (−4.1°C ÷ −6.0 °C) and very severe (<−6.0 °C) frosts in the total number of days with air frosts in Poland amounts to, on average, 5.8% in spring and 2.6% in autumn.

“…UTCI variation in regions is distinctly the lowest in summer and highest in February and March. The period from November to March, and February in particular, have the highest frequency of large day-to-day changes in air pressure (> 8.1 hPa), and thus the greatest variability in weather and weather differences even between towns that are close together (Koźmiński & Michalska, 2012;Kuchcik et al, 2013;Bilik et al, 2014;Rozbicka & Rozbicki, 2016).…”

The stimuli of thermal environment defined according to UTCI in Poland

2021

The assessment of thermal stress stimuli in Poland was based on the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI). Daily values of UTCI at 24 stations selected to represent the whole area of Poland at 12:00 UTC were calculated over the period 1951-2018. Various UTCI characteristics, i.e., spatial averages of daily, monthly and annual values, daily spatial contrasts (i.e., the difference between daily highest and lowest UTCI values) were defined in each of 8 bioclimatic regions of Poland. Ten-year trends for UTCI and spatial contrast values were counted and their statistical significance was analysed. A statistically significant increase in UTCI values was found in all the regions of Poland. However, contrasts in thermal stress both for Poland as a whole and in most of the regions decreased significantly, especially in the north-east of Poland, the country’s coldest region. This indicates a reduction in the stimuli of thermal environment in Poland and in most of the individual regions.

“…Based on regression lines, they indicated the negative impact of climate on agricultural production. Later analyses were conducted by, among others, Lobell and Field (2007), Olesen et al (2011), Tubielo andSchmidhuber (2008), Gornall et al (2010), Trnka et al (2011), Kozyra and Górski (2008), Stempel (2011), Florek andCzerwińska-Kayzer (2013), Koźmiński and Michalska (2010), Olkiewicz (2015), and Janowicz-Lomott and Łyskawa (2014). The issue is also addressed in reports/analyses of the World Bank (2010), the IPCC (2014) and the European Commission (2013).…”

The article addresses the issue of climate security, a topic not sufficiently explored in the literature. The article aims to fill the literature gap on explaining the link between climate change and security, defining the term climate security, and attempting to select indicators (based on a selection from those already existing) for diagnosing the level of climatic security. The research established a lack of studies clarifying the term climate security. Hence, the authors’ definition was adopted. In turn, a review of existing indicators indicated their limitations. Nevertheless, it allows us to verify whether there is a threat to climate security.
