Klimatyczne uwarunkowania rozwoju turystyki na Pomorzu Środkowym

In the paper the analysis of the time variability of meteorological elements affecting tourist values of the climate in Central Pomerania in 1971-2000 was carried out. On the basis of the tourism climatic index (TCI) the usefulness of climatic conditions of the towns of Chojnice and Szczecinek for tourism during a year was assessed. It was observed that in 1971-2000 the values of some meteorological elements changed statistically significantly. The largest changes were noticed in the number of cloudy days (an increase from 1.3 to 3.5 days/10 years in Szczecinek, a decrease by 1.7 days/10 years in Chojnice in October) in the maximum air temperature (an increase from 1.3 to 1.6 o C/10 years in January and April), in the minimum temperature (a decrease from 0.8 to 1.1°C/10 years in August and in Chojnice also from June to September) and in the precipitation total (an increase by 7.6 to 11.7 mm/10 years in February and March, a decrease by 10.2 mm/10 years in Szczecinek in November). According to the value index TCI the climatic conditions of Central Pomerania are at least “good” for the tourism for five months during a year, from May to September. In a holiday season (July-August) the conditions are very good and even excellent in Chojnice in August. Unfavourable weather conditions occur during two-four months in a year, from November to February in Chojnice and in December and January in Szczecinek.
