abstract: The study was devoted to evaluation of a new agroclimatic regionalisation of vine, as influenced by global warming under the conditions of Slovakia. Air temperature changes were evaluated for a reference period of the years 1951-1980, and generated according to regional outputs of the CCCM general circulation model for time horizons of the years 2010, 2030 and 2075. Active air temperature sum for vine growing was given by the mean air temperature tł10.0°C (ĺtvine in °C). A comparison was made between ĺtvine in the Hurbanovo climatic station that represents habitats of low altitudes (lowlands) and at the climatic station at Liptovský Hrádok that represents a possible upper border of vine growing in Slovakia.
