Аннотация:An analysis of heat waves in the Tomsk region has been conducted. There has been presented an analysis of the frequency of occurrence of heat waves in summer seasons, including waves, during which the average maximum air daily temperature exceeded the average maximum air temperatures at the stations; there have been established individual characteristics of waves: length and intensity. It has been shown that the longest waves were characteristic of the northern part of the region that corresponded to the probability of occurrence of such phenomena once every 100-300 years. The revealed quantitative indicators and trends of heat waves manifestations indicated a probability of an increased number of health deterioration cases of the regional population in future years.
