The development of physical oceanography in
More recently, three investigators made important contributions to
descriptive oceanography. Grgur Bučić
(1829 – 1911) analysed the influence of atmospheric factors on sea level
in Hvar. Artur Gavazzi (1861 – 1944) investigated the thermohaline structure of the
Josip Goldberg (1885
– 1960) occupies a prominent position among the above mentioned
scientists. Through his research and his teaching activities, he enabled the
transition from descriptive to dynamic oceanography in

at
ABSTRACT:
On the basis of changes in the seasonal variations of pressure,
precipitation and temperaturte at the Zagreb-Grič Observatory in the 1862 – 1980 period, we can distinguish four periods of an approximate
duration of thirty years each, within which seasonal variations of climatic
elements show some specific characteristics. Periods with somewhat stronger
characteristics of continental climate (1862– 1890, 1920– 1950)
alternate with periods during which continental characteristics are
considerably weakened (1890– 1920, 1951– 1980). As a consequence of
these climatic oscillations, it has been pointed out that the climatological normals determined
on the basis of 30-year record are not necessarily reliable. The relative
significance of these climatological fluctuations has
been estimated on the basis of comparisons with spatial variations of
previously used indicators in the area of

The analysis of 6-hourly geostrophic and
thermal wind variations based on the surface data in the area to the east of
Zagreb give new information on the changes in daily wind regime, which seems to
make additional contribution to future studies of local wind regime in
Zagreb.

ABSTRACT:
Meteorotropism of vascular diseases has been investigated through relationship of
vascular attacks daily frequency (myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular
insults and lung embolism, including lethal cases) to various meteorological
states and elements in
The sort of the weather types prevailing on days with
attacks daily frequency greater than

) is a daily
average of acute disease cases for each month) have been studied as well as
relation to weather fronts passages, warm and cold. An influence of particular
meteorological elements (air temperature, pressure and relative humidity; their
interdiurnal changeability; intradiurnal
temperature variability; vertical temperature gradient at
Results reveal that the greatest frequency of acute
vascular diseases appeared in advective weather
types, bringing, in their northerly or southerly flow, air masses with very
different thermal characteristics than formerly. They are followed by cyclonal
types and throughs, and high pressure ridges in
transitional seasons. Days with front passages are particularly significant for
appearance of the acute phase of the disease. Vascular incidents are most
frequent on days with cold front passages, but they also occur on a day before
as well as a day after the front passage. On a day with warm front passage the
number of vascular incidence decreases but two days earlier it increases. A
significant correlation has been found between vascular incidents and periods
of several days characterized by decreased air temperature, small intradiurnal variations of temperature, air pressure and
temperature great interdiurnal change as well as by
disturbed stability during night and day. The most dangerous seven-day periods
for vascular patients were characterized with nightly instability and daily
stability in the near ground atmospheric layer.

Cvijanović, D. (1985): Interdiurnal
variability of air temperature in
ABSTRACT:
A 100-year (1862 – 1961) continuous observation of air temperature
measurements at the Zagreb-Grič meteorological
Observatory has provided data for the study of interdiurnal
variability of this meteorological element.
Data has been analysed in successive mean diurnal air temperature values
and in frequencies of certain changes in mean diurnal air temperature.
The annual average of interdiurnal air
temperature variability (IDVT) at Zagreb-Grič is
1.76°C. The main maximum is in January (1.99) and the secondary ones are in
March (1.87) and June (1.85). The main minimum is in September (1.42) and the
secondary ones are in February (1.78) and May (1.75).
The average cooling values from February to November exceed the average
warming values, i.e. in about 75% days in a year. This means that at the
Zagreb-Grič Observatory the processes cooling the
atmosphere are more intensive than those heating it.
The IDVT frequencies have only been considered for January and July,
showing an outstandingly narrow interval of IDVT values where all warming
frequencies in July (IDVT £
The results obtained are compared to analogous results of other authors.
