Annual maximum rainfall intensity series from 16 meteorological stations were analyzed, and correlation coefficients were calculated and evaluated at . = 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10 significance levels. Results indicate that the Southern Oscillation predominantly affects short-and medium-duration rainfall in Sinop, whereas the North Sea-Caspian Pattern shows significant correlations with medium-and long-duration rainfall in Bart & Otilde;n, Bayburt, and G & uuml;m & uuml;& uacute;hane. These findings highlight the spatially varying influence of atmospheric oscillations on rainfall extremes in the region.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKey- Southern OscillationNorth Sea-Caspian Patternrainfall intensityatmospheric oscillationArticle1301294310.28974/idojaras.2026.1.22-s2.0-105033594560Q4WOS:001719689200002Q4
