Abstract

This paper analyses the precipitation variability at eight selected meteorological stations along the Adriatic coast in the period from 1950 to 2007. The objective of this study was to investigate the spatial differences in the precipitation variability in the study area. The mean absolute variability or mean relative variability was used as the measure of variability. The results indicate that there are differences in the variability of precipitation between the northern, central and southern Adriatic regions. Also, it was determined that the correlations between the changes in annual precipitation levels and variability in the study period were small.
