| description | The Bărăgan plain, situated in the E part of the Romanian Plain, is characterized by a temperate lowland climate, with an accentuated degree of continentality. Advection of air masses from all directions generates high intensity of weather phenomena specific to the two extreme seasons. Of course, aparticular role have the active underlying surface and local geography. The blizzard, the most complex meteorological phenomenon of the cold season, has one of its production poles in this area, and is amplified by its association with the local wind “crivăţ”, but favored by local physical-geographical factors (waste and land use having a particular role). Studying the blizzard phenomenon is particularly important, especially due to the impact that it produces over the environment and the socio-economical activities in a well populated area such as the Bărăgan Plain. |
