Abstract
The correlation coefficients between air temperature, precipitation, and geopotential heights of the 500 hPa level for six stations in Europe, located along the 20°E meridian from Scandinavia to Greece, for the period of 1951–1985 are calculated. The fields of correlation coefficients for each station and season are described. It is observed that the correlation coefficients of temperatures are, as a rule, significantly greater than for precipitation. How meridional and zonal circulation determine temperatures and precipitation has been examined.
