Pressure Map of Turkey

Pressure Map of Turkey

What are the climatic elements in Turkey, especially if we consider that the temperature, humidity and rainfall, winds, pressure, and an important climate elements which come out of it. Let's move on to the temperature input is the most important factor shaping the climate. What is the climate learn it before counting the elements of the climate, the climate is called the value of the average temperature in place for a long period of time. If we consider briefly what the effects of climate as a variety of products, to settle in our lives affects so many areas. Now let's look at the climate elements;

1. TEMPERATURE IN TURKEY

Temperatures in Turkey latitude, altitude, varies depending on denizellik and karasallığa.

Reduced Map of Annual Average Temperature Distribution in Turkey



Map Examined;

South East Anatolian Bölge'sinde average highest temperature and the lowest temperature averages in Eastern Anatolia (Erzurum-Kars) is seen.
Shows the mean temperature decrease towards the south to the north in general. (Latitude Effect)
The difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature 8 ° C higher.
Located on the same latitude temperatures are not the same in all centers.
Note: Reduced maps which are based on sea level altitude factor for the temperature distribution is not effective.

Map of Reduced Temperature Distribution in January



Map Examined;

Is seen that the lowest temperatures in northeastern Anatolia. The reason for this is that karasallık and the Siberian High Pressure effective.
Locations in the hottest parts of the Mediterranean coastal because of the latitude and maritime affairs.
The mean temperature is higher than those inland, coastal sections. The reason for this karasallık-denizelliktir.
Map of Reduced Temperature Distribution in July



Map Examined;

The highest temperatures are measured in the Southeastern Anatolia Region. Reasons for this situation, latitude, karasallık and winds blowing from the south.

Elevation of the lowest temperatures, winds blowing from the north is more open and is part of the Erzurum-Kars.

Karasallıktan inland due to higher average temperatures.

Note: The temperature differences between the regions in July, the differences are less than in January.

2. PRESSURE AND WINDS IN TURKEY

Map of Centers and Pressure Affecting Turkey



Thermal Siberian High Pressure: Siberian effective thermal high-pressure center in Turkey during the winter is very cold and snowy winters, especially in our country is caused to pass through. To be effective in the cold, dry and frost days will be led.

Asor Dynamic High Pressure: 30 ° latitude when it comes out and the Mediterranean precipitation occurring on the European snowfalls cause when it comes out. In some years, the Siberian winters combined with high pressure will result in more and longer ser.

Dynamic low pressure of Iceland: Iceland consisting of around 60 ° latitude passage of the rainy winter months are effective in a dynamic low-pressure center. Affect our country in times of diminishing the effect of Siberia.

Persian Thermal Low Pressure: the pressure caused by overheating in the center of the Persian Gulf, especially in the summer affect our country. Especially in the region of South East Anatolia Region is effective and leads to high temperature and evaporation.

Effective Turkey Winds



 a) Effective Cold Turkey Local Winds

1) Black Wind: Northwest winds as a way of Marmara and West Black Sea is more effective than the wind. Lowering temperatures will cause snow over the winter months.

2) Star: the wind blowing from north to the Black Sea region in particular are effective. Leads to lower temperatures and snow.

3) Poyraz: Northeast winter temperatures reduce work. Work in a cool and dry during the summer months.

b) Effective in Hot Local Winds in Turkey

1) Samyeli (southeastward): 30 ° latitude arises. Syrian desert hot and dry wind blowing onto South East Anatolian Region. Evaporation increases the severity.

2) Qiblah: the wind blowing from the south creating an impact in the Mediterranean humid and hot, drier inland areas have an impact.

3) Southwind: Southwest winds, Marmara, Aegean and Mediterranean regions effective character of the hot wind. In winter, there is an effective negative impact on sea transportation.

This winds the sea outside the country before it gets dark at night, daytime onshore breeze winds, along a mountain slope of the heating and melting of snow early in agricultural products, which cause early maturation of hair (Föhn) winds are effective.

3. HUMIDITY AND RAINFALL IN TURKEY

Turkey in terms of humidity and rainfall are very large differences between regions.

In general, coastal regions receive more rainfall than interior regions.
Began more than an average altitude of the mountains just behind the coastal areas (Eastern Black Sea region, the hinge region) is the amount of annual rainfall.
Which according to the environment of low, around the areas that are surrounded by high mountain ranges (Karapinar, Iğdır), annual rainfall is less fields.
Despite receiving more than its northern latitude, elevation receive more rainfall than Central Anatolia, Eastern Anatolia.
Southeastern Anatolia, Central Anatolia, although more rainfall than the driest region of Turkey. This is because the intense evaporation.
Concepts related to humidity,

1) Maximum Humidity: Maximum humidity, the mass of air can hold more moisture refers to a certain temperature. Carrying capacity of the air humidity increases as the temperature increases. In July, more than the maximum moisture content of the region of South East Anatolia.

2) Absolute Humidity: Absolute humidity, there is an air mass at a given time represents the moisture. With the increase in temperature will increase the amount of evaporation increases the absolute humidity.

3) Relative Humidity: Relative humidity, with a humidity of air can hold a certain temperature (maximum humidity) that exists in the humidity (absolute) as a percentage, the ratio of expression of each other. Maximum values ​​of the temperature drop in relative humidity to reduce the amount of moisture shows the ARIS. This allows the start of rainfall. Throughout the year, our region has the highest relative humidity regions.
