Aim
To explain what 'air-sea interaction' is To demonstrate the role of air-sea interaction
process in the present day precipitation variability of the southern Black Sea coast, by means of simple data analysis
Possible implications of this mechanism in the paleoclimate context ?

Sea / lake effect Precipitation
Hypothesis: The southern Black Sea area must be one of the “sea/lake effect” regions.
Test: Calculate correlations of temperature and sea surface temperature with precipitation!
Low Air Temp + High Water Temp

Conclusion
Air - sea interaction is possibly the dominant precipitation generator for the Southern Black Sea coast
This process can be quite independent from the large scale climate, for example cyclone frequency, Arctic-North Atlantic oscillation etc.

Implications - Questions
Warm and wet ? Or, cold and wet ? Possible contrast between Mediterranean and
southern Black Sea areas, in terms of rainfall? Mountain glaciation mechanisms ?
