Results and discussions
As we see in the fig.1 for the all of considering stations the temporal movement of annual
mean temperature has been synchronal characterized and over 1992-2016 there observes the
common increase of them. Over considered period high temperatures have been observed in
1995, 1998, 2001, 2005 and 2010 and lower temperatures in 1993, 1997, 2003 and 2011
years. So,
it generally, responds to other changes, which are observed over other territories of
Azerbaijan (Safarov et al, 2017). Over the period since the period of observations till today the
highest temperature has been noted in 2010.
Fig. 1. A
time course of the average annual temperature for the period 1992-2016
In the Fig. 2 there has been presented the differential-integral curve of the change of the
annual mean air temperature in Lankaran. As we see over the period from 1960 till 1994 the
change of the annual mean temperature has been accompanied by the supersession of
negative and positive anomalies each other by short periods. It
shows that from that year on
the considered territory the warming of the air has been sharply characterized. So, since 1994
as in the other territories of Azerbaijan (Safarov et al, 2017), also over the coastal zones of
Caspian Sea there observes the increase of the temperature, and it results in the acceleration
of the evaporation on the sea surface (Chen et al, 2017) and correspondently, the decrease of
the level. The increase of the temperature by this tension would
create sharp ecological
problems in blind water drainage, including Caspian Sea.
Also, in the research work there has been studied the change of annual and month’s mean
air temperature over different periods. By this aim for those periods there have been
calculated temperature anomalies in comparison with climate norms (table 1).
As we see in the table over considering territory the annual mean air temperature for the
1992-2016 period in comparison with climate norm (1961-1990) has been increased
averagely, 0.7 degree. But if over 1992-2004 this increase has been consisted of totally, 0.6
degree, then over 2015-2016 it has been sharply
increased and averagely, consisted of 1.0
degree. It shows that the raising temp of the warming is increasing gradually.

The study of the change character of the temperature in some months makes a big deal.
As we see in the table the increase of the temperature in January and February is more
stable, and anomalies are consisted of correspondently averagely, 0.8 and 0.9 degree.
Fig. 2. The difference-integral curve of the annual mean air temperature for Lankaran station
If over 1992-2004 in March the increase of the temperature is consisted of averagely totally
0.9 degree, then over 2005-2016 it has been sharply increased and reached to 1.4 degree. For
the 1992-2016 period it has consisted of 1.2 degree. In April the
increase of the temperature
is more stable and consists of 0.3-0.5 degree.
In May and June, the increase of the temperature moves by its peculiarly dynamics. So, if
over the same months of 1992-2004 period there have not been observed noticeable changes
of the temperature, then for the 2005-2016 period this increase has been consisted of
correspondently, 0.9-1.7 degree, but correspondingly, 0.5-1.2 degree for the 1992-2016
period.
There has been noted the increase in the anomalies of the temperature in June. So, if for
the 1992-2004 period the anomalies of the temperature
are not noticeable, then for the
2005-2016 period there has been noted their increase averagely, on 1.1 degree, for the 1992-
2016 period there has been noted 0.7 degree.
In August the anomaly of the high temperature, which has been observed over 1992-2004
period (averagely, 0.9 degree), has been additionally increased and reached on 1.7 degree and
for the 1992-2016 period it has been consisted of 1.3 degree. As we see in the table, the
anomaly of the highest temperature has been noted exactly in August.
The high temperature
anomalies, which are observing in July and especially, in August, create conditions for the
forest fires, the ecologically sharp condition, the drought and the acceleration of deserting
processes.
The mean temperature of September demonstrates increasing dynamics. So, if over 1992-
2004 the anomalies of the
temperature is not noticeable, then over 2005-2016 yet it has been
consisted of 1.2 degree, for the 1992-2016 period – 0.8 degree.
For October the anomaly of the mean temperature over 1992-2004 has been consisted of
averagely, 0.8 degree, but it has been gradually increased and consisted 1.1 degree in the
2005-2016 period and 1.0 degree for the 1992-2016 period.
As we see in the table there have not been observed any noticeable anomalies in the
temperature of November and December.
