AB  - In this manuscript we analyze daily rainfall observational records from 22 weather stations located in different regions over Serbia in the period 1949–2007. We examine the characteristics of dryness by using the Dry Days Since Last Rain – DDSLR approach. In order to quantify the DDSLR we use three metrics for each weather station: severity, consistency and uncertainty. Results show that these three metrics vary independently of each other as well as that there is a weak relationship between them. Weather stations in the northern parts of Serbia, with moderate annual amount of rainfall less than 650 mm, present higher dryness conditions whereas the lowest values were obtained for central parts in Serbia. Limited number of studies examined drying tendencies in Serbia and neighboring countries so far. We consider Serbia as an area of particular interest because of its position in a frontier between Mediterranean conditions on the southwest and the continental inland.
AB  - Дуги периоди без кише могу изазвати негативне последице на животну средину, економију и друштво. Суше несумњиво утичу и на водне ресурсе, пољопривреду, интензитет шумских пожара и деградацију земљишта. У овом раду анализиране су осмотрене дневне падавине у Србији у периоду између 1949. и 2007. године. Простор Србије је од посебног интереса с обзиром на његов географски положај између медитеранских и континенталних услова климе. У овом раду испитиване су карактеристике суше користећи приступ Dry Days Since Last Rain – DDSLR. За квантификацију DDSLR анализирана су три параметра на свакој станици: severity, consistency и uncertainty. Северни делови Србије, који имају релативно умерену количину падавина током године, показали су сушне тенденције. С друге стране, најниже вредности истраживаних параметара уочене се у централној Србији. Имајући у виду резултате истраживања може се закључити да суша није значајна климатска претња за Србију. Другим речима, како је Србија изложена утицајима медитеранске климе у њеним југозападним деловима, са вредностима медитеранског индекса од 1, могућност од појаве суша значајно је умањена. Појава суше у Србији изражена је у северним и источним деловима земље, равницама са најпродуктивнијим типовима земљишта. Због тога је боље разумевање ове појаве у Србији и њених друштвених и економских последица кључно у будућим истраживањима.

AB  - Rain spells are a key parameter in examining rainfall regime. A rain spell is defined as a series of consecutive days above a certain daily rainfall threshold (DRT). For each rain spell, its duration (RSD), yield (RSY) and average intensity (RSI), as well as their total number (NRS) in each year, were calculated. The present study analyses daily rainfall series from 22 stations representing the different regions of Serbia and Montenegro in the period 1949-2007. This study highlights the temporal variability (both inter- and intra-annual) and the complexity of the rainfall regime in both countries. In each station, all years were divided into three categories: wet, normal and dry according to their standard scores. Then, on the basis of these scores, the entire year was categorized accordingly. The various rain-spell parameters were calculated and are presented for each of these three categories. The relationships between NRS (exponential), RSY (linear) and RSI (power) with the RSD were calculated for each station and their coefficients were plotted. The entire study area was divided into three sub-regions in terms of similar annual behaviour, using the factor analysis. The regions are as follows: northern and central Serbia, eastern and southern Serbia and Montenegro. All years were grouped into several clusters, each representing a different spatial distribution. Their characteristics and probabilities are presented. Overall, Montenegro is much rainier than Serbia, having longer and more intense rain spells. Serbia, on the other hand, has more short rain spells than Montenegro and demonstrates no real summer dryness such as in Montenegro. Intra-annual variability is relatively high in both countries, slightly higher in Montenegro.
