Abstract

Long-term series (1901-1992) of mean daily minimum and maximum temperatures and mean daily temprature range, expressed as anomalies from 1961-1990 averages, have been studied at three stations representing the different climatic regions of Croatia: Osijek in the southem Pannonian lowland, Zagreb-Grič at the south-eastern edge of the Alps and Crikvenica on the northeastem part ofthe Adriatic coast. The fluctuations and trends of the seasonal and annual values of the anomalies have been analyzed by means of the 11-year binomial average filter, the Mann-Kendall rank test, and a progressive test for the onset of the trends, according to Sneyers.

Keywords
