Abstract

The paper examines some parameters of the astroclimate of two high mountain observatories in Tajikistan: Sanglok and Shorbulak. Long-term variations and seasonal features of total cloud cover and deposited water vapor are analyzed according to the ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis data. Estimates of the statistical significance of trends since 1980 have been made. The results of water vapor precipitation and surface wind velocity measurements at Sanglok Observatory from 2024–2025 are presented.
