Long‐term variations and trends in precipitation in Finland

Long‐term variations and trends in precipitation in Finland

Annual, seasonal and monthly variations in precipitation during the period 1911–2011 were evaluated using spatially interpolated monthly precipitation records at 165 stations with more than 30 years of data (of which 32 stations had 101 years of data referring to full length of study period). Histor...

Zusammenfassung:Annual, seasonal and monthly variations in precipitation during the period 1911–2011 were evaluated using spatially interpolated monthly precipitation records at 165 stations with more than 30 years of data (of which 32 stations had 101 years of data referring to full length of study period). Historical trends and cyclic patterns of precipitation and links to teleconnection indices were analysed. The results show that annual precipitation in Finland increased by 0.92 ± 0.50 mm year−1 (p
