The spatial and temporal variability of the main climatic indicators on the territory of the Volga Federal District in the 20th–21st centuries is considered. A general increasing trend in air temperature is revealed, and a heterogeneous pattern of precipitation changes is shown. The temperature variations until the end of the 21st century are analyzed on the example of Kazan using 40 CMIP6 climate models for four anthropogenic scenarios. In the paper, there is an assessment of the dynamics of agroclimatic resources on the territory of the Volga Federal District: the duration of the growing season, the sum of positive temperatures, total precipitation, and photosynthetic radiation. A correlation has been found between the temperature fluctuations in the region and the atmospheric circulation indices (NAO, AO, SCAND, and EAWR). For the territory of Tatarstan, a degree of aridity and waterlogging is evaluated using the agroclimatic indices: the Budyko's dryness index, the Selyaninov's hydrothermal coefficient, the Sapozhnikova's moisture index. It is shown that there is a tendency toward an increase in the duration of the growing season, its heat supply and aridity in the region in summer. A statistical estimation of the dependence of spring wheat yield on the agroclimatic indices on the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan is given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The overview of papers dealing with the analysis of current and future climate change on the territory of Russia and their impact on the crop productivity is presented. Using the reanalysis data for 1950–2020, trends in air temperature and precipitation are estimated for different regions of Russia. A correlation was found between changes in temperature and atmospheric circulation indices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The spatiotemporal variability of surface air temperature and precipitation in Russia is considered using the data from 1251 stations for two periods: 1976–2019 and 2001–2019. Main attention is paid to the analysis of trends in the above characteristics, which made it possible to estimate the scale of climate warming in recent decades. The connection between the atmospheric circulation indices (NAO, AO, EAWR, SCAND) and temperature fluctuations in the European part of Russia is revealed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study analyzes modern climate change based on the data of the climate monitoring performed by the Izrael Institute of Global Climate and Ecology. A brief description of the surface climate monitoring database and its real-time updating is given. Changes in surface temperature over the Earth's land with detailing over the territory of Russia and its regions, as well as changes in the precipitation regime in Russia during the period of modern warming are considered. Changes in the statistics of temperature extremes in Russia are analyzed. Some extreme summer seasons are characterized in terms of accompanying their circulation conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
