It should be noted that the adverse climatic events are always at the center of attention.And this is perhaps not surprising, because we all do sometimes without realizing it, are under their influence.Although, of course, a lot also depends on the place of residence of each specific person.For example, in the middle zone of our country quite rarely drought and strong winds, but the Far East are characterized by floods and flooding.
agree, although adverse climatic events happen in Russia is much less than, say, in the United States or, for example, in the Balkans, our plans for the day can still be spoiled downpours, heavy snowfalls and terrible heat.And it's only a few of all possible options.
This article aims to ensure that as far as possible to acquaint the reader with such an important topic as the adverse climatic events.In six chapters will be submitted all the necessary theoretical information and global problems will be revealed on the basis of the most typical examples.
natural conditions.General information
Under natural conditions is understood geological features fragments of relief, landscape and climate zoning of individual areas.In principle, they are not involved in the production itself, but still to a large extent determine the organization as a living and economic activities of the population.
Of course, the most powerful influence they have on agriculture, asits efficiency and specialization are directly dependent on water regime of the territory, its climate and the degree of soil fertility.
life of the people is also subject to the impact of natural conditions, ie,of them, of course, it depends on the need for some form of housing, diet and dress the person.
Taking into account all the above information, we can conclude that this kind of conditions largely determine the social as well as economic feasibility of the construction of certain settlements, transport routes and industrial plants.In addition, it is safe to assert that the adverse climatic events cause the development of mineral resources.
man's dependence on climate
In general, the climatic conditions of our country, even with all their severity are not some insurmountable obstacle for the successful conduct of business and for life itself.It should be noted that a significant portion of the Russian population still lives in areas with continental and temperate continental climate.
What expressed harsh climate?According to scientists, in the first place it is severe frosts and winds, as well as in long nights in the cold season.
By the way, do not forget also the coming of the long polar night in the north and north-east of the state.Note that in the climate of the area is considered severe enough, yet people still continue to actively explore these regions.
Today the government is doing everything possible to increase the density of population in the regions, which are characterized by the adverse climatic events in Russia, which is why the work is paid much higher than the national average.
Climate Russia
Russia - it's really a huge country located in several areas, and therefore its climate is quite heterogeneous, and talk about it, using just a few sentences, is unlikely to succeed.
For clarity, a special table was drawn "adverse climatic events" shows exactly what should be afraid of a man found himself in some corner of our vast country.
We have tried to address every climate zone of the state.
| name climatic zone | adverse climatic events in Russia | where he met most often |
| Moderate | low temperature in winter,abundant precipitation in the form of rain and snow, droughts, floods | Most of the country |
| arctic and subarctic | Heavy snowfall and low temperatures | Islands belonging to the North Arctic Ocean andcontinental areas located in the Far North |
| Subtropical | High temperatures, drought, winds, strong winds | Black Sea coast |
drought and dry winds in Russia
Thesethe phenomena of nature without reason attributed to the category of the most dangerous in the country.The fact is that, as a rule, they cause considerable damage to horticulture and fruit growing, and this applies to both private enterprises and the scale of the entire state.
In most cases, the drought comes on suddenly, and prepare for it in advance is almost impossible.
In Russia it can occur at any time of the year, except perhaps for the winter.The most deadly is considered the season with no rain in the spring, immediately after the snow melts, hot summer or winter before the first frost.
protracted period without rain and low humidity is fraught with the strongest drying of the soil, small lakes and even the shallow rivers.More often than not drought, repeated two or even three years in a row, causing huge damage to agriculture in the region.
Hail and heavy rains
If you talk about the adverse climatic events in the Omsk, Moscow or, say, in Saratov, not to mention such a purely summer, as heavy rains and hail.
way, according to meteorologists, the most devastating for the middle band Russia is considered to hail that falls during a storm from 12 to 17 hours.In general, the center of the non-chernozem zone refers to the band, which is considered the most exposed to this type of precipitation.For example, in the Moscow region during the year, on average hail may fall by 2 to 4 times.
Dimensions hailstones are directly proportional to the amount of the damage caused.Typically, such pea ice has no more than 3-5 mm in diameter, but there are larger specimens to 10 cm. The weight of the individual pieces of ice is about several grams, but met ekzemlpyary and weighing 0.5 kg.
First of all, hail is very dangerous for fruit plants: he throws a blossoming flower, fresh, young leaves and fruits, sometimes even irreparably nadlamyvayutsya stems of raspberries, currants, blackberries and other bushes.
As a rule, the most dangerous is the hail falls during the flowering plants.This can partially or completely destroy the crop.As a result, the trees in the gardens are completely naked - not only without fruit, but also almost entirely without foliage.It seems that in an instant you are transferred from spring to late autumn, when the ground is almost entirely covered with berries and fallen fruit.
way, it should be noted that the damage caused by hail in the trees (as in the trunk, and the branches) are very difficult to heal.Such plants are then easily damaged various kinds of pests and diseases.
Projections for the future
There is quite a strong belief that if any adverse climatic events and expect the Earth in the near future, so it is a significant increase in mean annual air temperature and global warming.
Russian scientists decided to test this law on the basis of our country and came to a surprising conclusion.It turns out that there is a strange pattern: the Russians are more likely to suffer from the cold, blizzards, piercing winds and frost than from the sweltering heat.Apparently, the whole thing in the northern location of the state.
For example, in 2013 there was a particularly frosty day 23, 37 and 35 cases of frost snowstorm.But all this as the Russians themselves, and all the necessary equipment had been fully prepared, so the collapse did not happen either in social or in the transport sector.
But hot days was only 12, and that mainly in the southern part of the state.Heavy precipitation annoyed the Russians 95 times, dangerous storm winds - 75. It should be noted that such a trend has been observed for several years.
By the way, note that strong snowstorm and prolonged snowfall in most cases accompanied by higher temperatures than normal clear weather.But the wind, in turn, may enhance the feeling of cold.That is why the storm could be seen as a particularly cold phenomenon.As an example, Chukotka.Here locals believe a snowstorm one of the worst manifestations of global climate change.The fact is that this type of rain can last for days, or even weeks, almost entirely depriving a person to move around.
