Authors: Mukhamediyarov N. Z., Makarychev S. V., Kolbin V. V., Dyusembayeva M. T., Shakenov E. Z., Yesilkanov Gani Mukhtarovich G. M., Temirzhanova A. E., Tashekova A. Z., Умаров М. А.

The results of studying the features of the spatial distribution of macro- and microelements in the “water – bottom sediments” system in the channel of the Uzynbulak creek (“Degelen” site of the Semipalatinsk test site, Kazakhstan) are presented. The studies were carried out in the summer of 2015. As a result of the study of the chemical composition in surface waters and bottom sediments of the Uzynbulak creek, the content of Li, Be, Na, Mg, K, Ca, V, Ni, Mo, Fe, Sr, Al, Zn, Ba, La, Ce, U was revealed.

Application of time series models for forecasting the global temperature anomalies

Authors: Bogdanov M. B., Morozova S. V., Alimpieva M. A.

Spectral analysis of the time series for average annual values of the globally averaged surface temperature anomaly shows the presence of harmonics of the lunar nodal cycle with a period of 18.6 years, which can be used to predict the values of the series. Three models of the series were considered: autoregression AR(p), combined model of autoregression – integrated moving average ARIMA(p,d,q) and artificial neural network. It is shown that the ARIMA(4,1,4) model gives the best results for predicting the global temperature anomaly for three years.

Peculiarities of the temperature and humidity regime of the Right Bank of the Saratov region against the background of global climate trends

Authors: Morozova S. V., Alimpieva M. A., Mardanshina E. R., Yukhmin R. B.

The temperature and humidity regime of the Right Bank is considered according to the data of four weather stations in three natural climatic periods – stabilization, the first and second waves of global warming. There is an increase in the rate of warming from one natural climatic period to another. Against the background of a progressive rise in temperatures, there is an increase in the amount of precipitation in the cold half of the year and its decrease in the warm one.

Characterizing the temperature and humidity regime of the Left Bank of the Saratov region against the background of the second wave of global warming

Authors: Morozova S. V., Alimpieva M. A.

The article considers the temperature and humidity regime of the Left Bank of the Saratov region in various natural climatic periods of the state of the earth’s climate system – the first wave of global warming, stabilization, the second wave of global warming. It is noted that against the background of rising temperatures from one climatic period to another in the Trans-Volga region, the amount of precipitation in the cold half of the year increases. The trend in precipitation during the warm period is ambiguous.
