Modern climate of the Cat Tin National Park (Southern Vietnam): Climatological data for ecological studies

A method of using the standard network weather station data for local ecosystem research is considered on the example of the modern climate of the Cat Tin National Park (Southern Vietnam) and local climate change in 1980-2010. Special attention is focused on the environmental parameters, which play a role of the limiting factors. It is shown that the climate of Southern Vietnam responds with statistical significance to global climate change. Suggestions about the possible reactions of tropical monsoon forest ecosystem to climate change are given.
