Abstract:
This study presents the evolution of the main climatic elements (air temperature, relative humidity, sunshine, atmospheric precipitation and winds) in the period 1961-2018 and the adequacy of local agricultural activities in the Cotnari area, given the increasing vulnerability of environmental components to variability of meteorological elements. climate. The Cotnariis located in the transition area of the Suceava Plateau to the Moldavian Plain, between the Ruginoasa-Tg saddles. Beautiful, to the south and Bucecea-Botoșani, to the north. Climatically, at the intersection of Eastern European air masses specific to the Moldavian plain, characterized by hot and dry summers, cold winters with cold wind and Scandinavian-Baltic influences specific to the Suceava Plateau, characterized by cool summers and cold winters [2], [3].
