Classification of Croatian winegrowing regions based on bioclimatic indices
Abstract
The aim of this work was to classifie vine growing regions of Croatia using bioclimatic indices. For the analysis of climatic conditions, linear trends of bioclimatic indices were determined using meteorological observations for all avaliable climatological stations located in vine growing regions of Croatia. Analysis were performed for two different climatological periods: 1961-1990 and 1988-2017. Four commonly used bioclimatic indices were determined: the Winkler index, the Huglin index, Cool night index and Growing season average temperature.
