“…Their variability and trends are related to four teleconnection patterns: North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), East Atlantic pattern (EA), Scandinavian pattern (SCA) and East Atlantic/West Russia pattern (EAWR). This is the first study to link these indices to teleconnection patterns from a pan-European gridded dataset as previous studies have looked at specific regions in Europe (Irannezhad and Kløve, 2015;Tomcyzk et al, 2019;Tomczyk and Szyga-Pluta, 2019) or at the ECA&D station data (Cornes et al, 2019).…”

“…There have also been several studies applying growing season precipitation and mean growing season temperature to viticulture (wine production) in parts of Europe: the Iberian Peninsula (Blanco-Ward et al, 2007;Ramos et al, 2008;Santos et al, 2012;Moral et al, 2015;Blanco-Ward et al, 2017;Blanco-Ward et al, 2019), France (Neethling et al, 2012), England (Nesbitt et al, 2016) and Hungary (Kovacs et al, 2017). Only Santos et al (2012), Irannezhad and Kløve (2015) and Tomcyzk et al (2019) have linked the growing season indices to teleconnection patterns, although Cornes et al (2019) linked the growing season onset and end to circulation patterns with the European Climate Assessment & Dataset (ECA&D) blended station data for all of Europe.…”

“…Previous studies have linked some aspects of the growing season to teleconnection patterns in various parts of Europe but have all focused on specific countries or regions. For example, Ylhäisi et al (2010) and Irannezhad and Kløve (2015) looked at growing season parameters across Finland, Tomcyzk et al (2019) and Tomczyk and Szyga-Pluta (2019) focused on Poland and Popotova et al (2015) examined a specific region of the Czech Republic which produces a large amount of farmed vegetables. There have also been several studies applying growing season precipitation and mean growing season temperature to viticulture (wine production) in parts of Europe: the Iberian Peninsula (Blanco-Ward et al, 2007;Ramos et al, 2008;Santos et al, 2012;Moral et al, 2015;Blanco-Ward et al, 2017;Blanco-Ward et al, 2019), France (Neethling et al, 2012), England (Nesbitt et al, 2016) and Hungary (Kovacs et al, 2017).…”

The role of teleconnection patterns in the variability and trends of growing season indices across Europe

Teleconnection patterns affect the weather and climate on both interannual and decadal timescales which in turn affects various socio-economic sectors such as agriculture. We use three climate indices based on E-OBS data from the INDECIS dataset (growing season onset [ogs10], growing season rainfall [gsr] and growing season temperature [ta_o]) to assess the interannual variability and trends over 1950-2017 associated with four teleconnection patterns (North Atlantic Oscillation [NAO], East Atlantic pattern [EA], Scandinavian pattern [SCA] and East Atlantic/West Russia pattern [EAWR]) using linear regression to extract the signal of each teleconnection pattern and their contribution to interannual variability. Trends towards an earlier growing season onset are found across most of Europe in low-lying regions. The NAO dominates interannual variability in northwest Europe where an NAO index of 1 is associated with earlier ogs10 of about 10 days and the EA dominates the continent with a trend towards the positive EA phase driving an earlier growing season onset of 1.1-1.7 daysÁdecade −1 in five regions (Great Britain and Ireland, France, Italy, Poland and North Germany, Hungary, Balkans). The EA and SCA gsr signals have north/south splits of orientation: positive EA is linked to increased gsr in northern regions and reduced gsr in southern Europe, and vice versa for SCA. Correlations between gsr interannual variability and the teleconnection contributions are strongest in the Mediterranean regions and south Scandinavia with maxima of 0.41 and 0.46, respectively. Decreasing ta_o trends in Romania are explained by poordata coverage causing problems with the EOBS gridding algorithm when new stations are incorporated from 1961. The net effect is that Romanian ta_o is about 1.5 C cooler than expected compared to trends from surrounding countries. Improved spatial and temporal data coverage will benefit the EOBS dataset and prevent such erroneous trends.

“…In the further east, the more cases of autumn frost were recorded. Spring frost poses a greater threat in the western part of the study area, where the frost-free and vegetation period begins earlier (Tomczyk et al 2015;Wypych et al 2017;Bielec-Bąkowska et al 2018;Tomczyk et al 2018a) and the difference in the commencement of the periods between the eastern and western regions of Central Europe can be even more than a month. According to Wypych et al (2017), such a spatial variability in Central Europe results from circulation factors.…”

The objective of the paper was the determination of the circulation conditions of occurrence of strong and very strong frost in Central Europe. A frost day was defined as a day with the minimum temperature lower than 0°C and maximum temperature higher than 0°C. Moreover, a division of frost was performed in terms of value of minimum temperature, resulting in the designation of mild frost (up to − 2.0°C), moderate frost (from − 2.1 to − 4°C), strong frost (from − 4.1 to − 6°C) and very strong frost (< − 6°C).

“…The correlation was performed between cumulative precipitation sums 5, 10, 15, and 30 days before the measurement day (from D ąbrówka Stara meteorological station) and the difference between the concentration of certain biogenic compounds between the two measurement days for all sampling sites. Such a procedure was applied throughout the whole investigated period, as well as only during the growing period, in which Central Poland lasts from April to November [64]. Due to the lack of other meteorological stations, even in close proximity to the studied catchment, it was assumed that the precipitation sum from the D ąbrówka Stara meteorological station is representative of all sampling sites.…”

The influence of various types of agricultural activities on the dynamics of biogenic compounds of flowing water was broadly recognized in many spatial and temporal scales. However, relatively minor attention was paid to the hydrochemical functioning of horticultural catchments despite their importance and dominance in some regions of Europe. Thus, the current study investigated spatial and seasonal variations in inorganic nitrogen and phosphorous compounds in stream water in the Mogielanka River catchment, with 72% covered by apple orchards. Water samples were collected from fifteen sites distributed across the catchment in the monthly timescale from March 2020 to February 2021. Concentrations of NO3−, NO2−, NH4+, and PO43− were determined photometrically, while in situ water temperature, oxygen saturation, electrical conductivity, and pH, were measured with the use of portable devices. The impact of horticulture was mainly documented in the higher concentration of NO3− during the winter months; however, maximum values did not exceed 15 mg·dm−3 and were relatively low in comparison to catchments dominated by arable lands. The authors also found a clear impact of unstratified reservoirs and inflows from wastewater treatment plants on the dynamics of biogenic compounds. The correlations of PO43− with the sums of precipitation suggested, in turn, that increased PO43− concentration mainly results from poor sewage management. The results provided preliminary but unique and spatially extensive insight into the functioning of an orchard-dominated lowland catchment and allowed the researchers to point out the main recommendations for improving water quality in similar regions.
