ANALYSIS OF PRECIPITATION DYNAMICS AND CLIMATE NORMALS FOR THE DECADES IN CULTIVATED LANDS OF SUBMOUNTAIN FOREST-STEPPE ZONE OF CENTRAL CAUCASUS FOR 1961-2014 (ACCORDING TO THE VLADIKAVKAZ METEOROLOGICAL STATION)

The analysis of precipitation dynamics of decades time duration on the meteorological station (m/s) Vladikavkaz for 1961-2014 is given in this article. The evaluation period covers the base period of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) 1961-1990 and the post-base WMO period 1991-2014. The long-term precipitation normals for the decades' intervals of base WMO period are revealed and calculation of changes of humidity dynamics for post-base WMO period based on the Cox-Stuart test is given.
