Abstract
Analysis of an Occurrence of High Frosts During the Growing Season in Central-East Poland in 2001-2018
Highlights
Mild frosts are natural phenomena which are the most frequent during transitions between seasons of the year
The spring frosts occur from April to mid-June, and the autumn frosts are recorded at the turn of summer and autumn (Witeska 2011)
All types of high frosts were subjected to analysis: light, moderate and severe frosts recorded in spring and autumn
Summary
Mild frosts are natural phenomena which are the most frequent during transitions between seasons of the year. These frosts occur when the average 24-hour air temperature is positive but the minimum temperature drops below 0°C (SzygaPluta 2017, Witeska 2011). In terms of height at which they occur, frosts are divided into ground and high frosts (at the level of, respectively, 5 and 200 cm from the ground) Taking their intensity into account, there are light frosts (the temperature drop ranges from –0.1 to –1.9°C), moderate frosts (from –1.9 to –3.9°C), and severe frosts (lower than –3.9°C) (Niedźwiedź 2003)
