This paper considers annual and seasonal variations of temperatures at three stations in Greece with at least 80 years of records. The extent and nature of non-random changes, such as persistence, trend and fluctuations, are investigated. There is statistical evidence of both Markov linear and non-linear persistence in the data depending on stations and season. The trend analysis showed little of significance, probably because of the time periods chosen. The data were subjected to a 'lowpass filter' of a Gaussian type and the series of fluctuations which resulted are discussed. Finally the data for all three stations were combined and filtered in order to show changes that have occurred in the Greek region during the twentieth century.

## Abstract Mean monthly air temperatures in Cracow for the period 1826–1990 were used. The temperatures of the coldest (__T__~low~) the warmest (__T__~high~) periods of the year, and mean annual temperatures (__T__~a~), were calculated. The persistence of temperatures was examined using the correl
The purpose of this study is to investigate the variations and trends in the long-term annual mean air temperatures by using graphical and statistical time-series methods. The study covers a 63-year period starting from 1930 and uses temperature records from 85 climate stations. First, spatial distr
