| Abstract: | The author uses the annual march of precipitation as a basis for climatic regionalization of small areas. He finds that this method meets the requirement of using an index related directly to the circulation of the atmosphere and easily constructed from widely available precipitation data. He also holds that the march-of-precipitation method yields more precise regional boundaries than other methods. The author finds virtually complete agreement between his climatic regions and the regional units delimited by Soviet geobotanists. |
