Abstract

Currently, much attention is paid to the study of climate change. The climate of Kabardino- Balkaria is formed under the influence of the following main climate-forming factors: latitude, terrain, direction of prevailing winds, underlying surface. The mountainous relief causes high-altitude climate zoning, which is especially pronounced in the high-mountainous region of the Central Caucasus. The general change in air temperature and humidity with height is superimposed by a change in air circulation in the high layers of the atmosphere. In the mountains, from an altitude of about 2000 m, the leading role belongs to the western air transport. This paper presents the results of a study based on instrumental observation data at 3 m / stations located in different climatic zones of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic.
