Abstract

Corresponding to the global trends, the territory of Hungary is endangered by extreme weather manifestations. The increased frequency of the unfavorable effects (inland water, flood, drought, heat stress) can be detected. These harmful manifestations result in a significant economic and environmental risk. To investigate adverse environmental effects and risks that have an impact on economic and productive activities is essential. The aim of our research is to present the transformation of the climatic system of the Moson Plain in the northwestern part of Hungary by analyzing special indicators based on daily temperature and precipitation data covering approximately two climatic cycles (1961–1990; 1991–2018). Based on our results, we can report the formation of a warming microclimate with whimsical precipitation rates, which is accompanied by a decrease in low temperature values. At the same time, we can observe more prominent manifestations of heat waves.
