This is a study on the effects of teleconnection patterns (TPs) on the extremes of temperature
and precipitation over Turkey. Relationships between five teleconnection patterns, North …

The most severe flood events in Turkey were determined for the period 1960–2014 by
considering the number of fatalities, the number of affected people, and the total economic …

Natural disasters such as droughts and floods originate as a consequence of excessive high
or low precipitation amount and/or frequency. Due to the temporal persistence of the latter …

Understanding the influence of atmospheric circulation on the variability of hydroclimatic
parameters can considerably contribute to water management. In this study, atmospheric …

Extreme rainfall has enormous importance in hazard management as well as the design of
critical infrastructures for urban and rural areas. Also, complex terrain has a vast influence …

The main advantage of classifying weather types is its systematic use with pressure gridded
values. In this paper, an extensive database covering 74 years was used to determine …

High levels of atmospheric pollutants have been frequently measured in Turkey during the
last decade. Specifically, the occurrence of these high particulate matter concentrations is …

A climatological analysis and overlying synoptic conditions of Black Sea-effect snowfall
events were investigated for Istanbul, Turkey, during the 1971–2006 winter (DJF) periods …

This paper investigates the precipitation types and background physical mechanisms of
extreme precipitation events (EPEs) over western Turkey during the period 2006–2015. The …

The short waves (less than 6000 km) embedded within the long waves and the resulting
short-wave troughs have an effect on the sea-effect snow (SES). The short-wave troughs …
