Our study showed that during last 56 years the changes in the precipitation regime had a positive trend for the warm seasons(April-October),but weakly positive or negative trends for the cold seasons(November-March). It was found that these changes correspond to the decreasing contribution of "Northern meridional and Stationary anticyclone(Nm-Sa)" and "Northern meridional and East zonal(Nm-Ez)" circulation groups and to the increasing contribution of "West zonal and Southern meridional(Wz-Sm)" circulation groups,accordingly to the Dzerdzeevskii classification. In addition,it was found that the variation of precipitation has a step change point in 1980. For the warm seasons,the precipitation change at this point is associated with the reduced influence of "West zonal(Wz)","Northern meridional and Stationary anticyclone(Nm-Sa)" and "Northern meridional and Southern meridional(Nm-Sm)" circulation groups. For the cold seasons,a substantialincrease of "Wz-Sm" and a decrease of "Nm-Sa","Nm-Ez" circulation groups are responsible for the precipitation change in the two time periods(1959-1980 and 1981-2014).展开更多
