Abstract
Considered are the results of the investigation of climatic fluctuations, supercentury climate trend, and 30-year trends in modern Moscow based on the time series of monthly mean values of air temperature for 1879–2010. The data of air temperature anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere for the same period were used for the comparison. The computation of characteristics was carried out using the method of singular spectral analysis.
