Methodology of assessment of climatic vulnerability of a region on the basis of nondimensional climatic indices
Climatic vulnerability of a region along parallel 55 from 24º E to 78º E is estimated. To determine the region climatic vulnerability non-dimensional climatic indices were used, which comprised not only temperature extrema, but also data on precipitation and wind. The period of observations covered about 130 years. The obtained values of indices can be used for long-term planning of measures of adaptation to climate changes, ecology-related arrangements, construction of infrastructural facilities on a grand scale.
