Variability of meteorological parameters on the Uznam and Wolin islands (Baltic Sea)

Abstract

 The aim of the work is to analyze the variability of temperature, precipitation and snow cover, as well as the number of days with wind over 10 ms-1 and storms occurring on the Uznam and Wolin – coastal islands of the Baltic Sea (Poland/Germany). The research material used in the paper were data collected in the years from 1960 to 2018 from the meteorological station Świnoujście belong to the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management – National Research Institute (IMWH-NRI). The non-parametric Mann–Kendalls test were used to detect trends in the changes in time series. Statistically significant trends of changes in the meteorological parameters analyzed were observed.
