Change in climatic characteristics of the cold period of the hydrological year in the south-east of Western Siberia

Abstract

This article is about the changes in climatic characteristics during the cold period of the hydrological year in the southeast of Western Siberia over the past 60 years and their impact on the depth of soil freezing in dissected territories. It has been established that at the regional level over the past 60 years there has been an increase in air temperature and an increase in precipitation during cold periods of hydrological years. These changes have a direct impact on the depth of freezing of soils in the dismembered territories of the southeast of Western Siberia. A stable tendency towards a decrease in the freezing depth was noted from 1968 to 2020.
