¶Trends and low frequency fluctuations relying on 14 observed temperature and precipitation series 1901–1998 from Hungarian sites are presented. The statistical significances of systematic changes are calculated by the t-test for the linear trends and the Mann-Kendall test. Characteristics of long-term fluctuations are investigated by spectrum analysis (Fisher-test), fitting optimum-ranked polynomials as well as illustrated by smoothed curves of 15-point Gauss-filter application.
