Abstract
This paper examines whether the degree of the continentality influences the long-term precipitation trends in Croatia. Data from 23 meteorological stations were analysed for the period 1950–2007. According to the long-term trends in this period, precipitation levels have shown very little change, or stagnation, at all stations in Croatia (with the exception of Dubrovnik). It has been shown that the level of continentality has no signifi cant influence on the long-term linear precipitation trends.
