    Historical-geographical analysis of weather extremes in the first half of the 18 th century (the time of Matej Bel) on the territory of Slovakia. The study presents a historical-geographical analysis of the weather and its extreme impacts in the landscape, its effects on the economy and human life in the period of the first half of the 18th century, which is also referred to as the era of Matej Bel. Chronologically reconstructs these events on the territory of Upper Hungary, i.e. j. the territory of today’s Slovakia. The subject of the research were all events that deviated from the long-term course of the weather in a given period - extreme frosts, snow calamities, thunderstorms, lightning strikes, windstorms, floods, droughts, etc. The weather in the studied period was strongly influenced by the most extreme period within the Little Ice Age, which lasted in the Western Carpathians from about the 15th century to the middle of the 19 th century. It was called the Maunder Minimum (1645–1715) and was characterized by a significant decrease in solar activity. This led to significant cooling and the emergence of extreme situations and weather instability. Weather extremes were also described by Matej Bel in his work called „Notitia“. He focused directly on the events he experienced in his life and on his travels - heavy snow cover in the mountains, frosts, storms, floods, droughts, etc.
