TRENDS IN CHANGE OF LOW STRATIFORM CLOUDS OVER THE SIBERIAN REGION

The paper studies long-term changes in the amount of low-level stratiform clouds (Sc, St, Ns) over the Siberian region based on 54-year (from 1969 to 2022) observations from 70 meteorological stations for four seasons (winter, spring, summer and autumn) and on average for the year. The greatest trend in long-term changes in the amount of lower stratiform cloudiness is observed in winter: the maximum positive trend is observed in Western Siberia, and the largest (in absolute value) negative trend is in Eastern Siberia, especially in central Yakutia.
