Abstract
In this chapter we are analyzing the observed regional climate change in the region of the Boka Kotorska Bay basing on a set of key meteorological parameters: near-surface air temperature, sea-level pressure, atmospheric precipitation, snow cover, wind speed, and cloud cover over the past 60 years. For the analysis of meteorological parameters we used monthly and daily data from the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis, NOAA CIRES Twentieth Century Global Reanalysis Version 2c, ERA-20C, JRA-55 for the 1950–2010 time period.
