Abstract

Temporal characteristics of precipitation evolution in Dobrudja, a region situated in the Southeastern part of Romania, are analyzed in this article, using a data base of ten monthly series, collected in the period January 1965-December 2005. This paper describes different methods to detect the break points existence in order to detect changes in evolution of the monthly precipitation series. The study indicates a constant trend of precipitation before 2000 and an increasing one after 2000, in concordance with the predictions for this region.
