The use of weather satellite recordings has been growing rapidly over the last three decades.
Determining the patterns between meteorological and topographical features is an important scientific
job. Cloud cover analysis and properties can be of the utmost significance for potential cloud seeding.
Here, the analysis of the cloud properties was conducted by means of Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite recordings. The resolution of used data was 1 km2 within the
period of 30 years (1989–2019). This research showed moderate changing of cloudiness in the territory
of Serbia with a high cloudiness in February, followed by cloudiness in January and November. For
the past three decades, May has been the month with the highest cloudiness. The regions in the east
and south-west, and particularly in the west, have a high absolute cloudiness, which is connected
with the high elevation of the country. By means of long term monitoring, the whole territory of
S...erbia was analyzed for the first time, in terms of cloudiness. Apart from the statistical and numerical
results obtained, this research showed a connection between relief and clouds, especially in the
winter season. Linear regression MK (Mann-Kendall test) has proven this theory right, connecting
high elevation sides with high absolute cloudiness through the year.
