Abstract

The study presents the classification of cyclones according to the region of origin and track in the Euro-Atlantic sector. The cyclones have been identified according to the ERA5 reanalysis data. Their seasonal frequency, travel speed, size, and central pressure have been quantified, and their trends have been revealed. Mean and maximum total precipitation associated with the distinguished types of cyclones over the territory of Europe is determined. It is shown that the frequency of the North Atlantic cyclones in the recent 40 years has decreased in winter, summer, and autumn and increased in spring. It has been revealed, that the frequency of the southern cyclones insignificantly decreases in summer and increases in winter. A decrease in minimum central pressure for some types of the North Atlantic cyclones occurs in winter and summer. There is an increase in maximum total precipitation in winter due to the North Atlantic cyclones and in summer due to the southern cyclones. The number of days with cyclonic precipitation decreases for all types of cyclones.
