Seasonal, interannual and long-term variability of precipitation and snow depth in the region of the Barents and Kara seas
Observation data of temperature, precipitation and snow depth have been compiled and generalized climatologically for a network of 38 stations in and around the Barents and Kara seas, for the period 1951–1992. The monthly precipitation totals were corrected for measuring errors, and the correction m...
