I need a grammar and content checking
Could someone please look over this scientific abstract and correct grammar errors and give me suggestions for improving content. Thank you!

This paper introduces the first meteorological measurements in a snow pit near the village Neka in Neko podrucje region in the western mountainous part of Zemlja. This research was initiated by Zemaljon Meteorological Society and Meteorological and Hydrological Service of Zemlja. The aim was to find out the main meteorological characteristics of the location and to compare them with climate characteristics of the whole region. Measurements in the snow pit and surrounding area were conducted in the period from 20nd to 30th August 2012. The main idea was to find out the connection between meteorological conditions in the pit and the climate conditions of the area in which snow pits could be find. The assumption was that meteorological conditions in snow pits could be indicators of climate changes.
Temperature and relative humidity were measured inside and in the vicinity of the snow pit. Two samples of snow from different depths of snow accumulation on the bottom of the pit (depth approx 53 m) were collected for analyses. In the period of measurements it was raining and the precipitation amount was also measured.
The highest temperature outside the snow pit was 20.0 °C, and the lowest was 5.0 °C. The highest relative humidity was 100 %, and the lowest was 0 %. The amount of rain was 10 l/m2 and the pH was 7.00. Soil temperatures measured at 5 cm depth were from 10.0 °C to 15.0 °C, and those at 10 cm depth from 10.0 °C to 15.0 °C. On the bottom of the snow pit temperature was 0.0 °C and relative humidity was 100.0 %. Snow sample taken from the bottom of the snow pit from 0.5 m depth had pH value 7.00, and the one from 1.0 m depth had pH 7.00. Changes of temperature and relative humidity in the vicinity of the pit showed typical variations for season, but the values inside the snow pit were constant. Chemical analyses of the snow samples and rain showed that there were not acid rain at monitoring location what is surprising as we know that region is under the influence of long range pollution. Further investigations of snow pits should be conducted to test the general meaning of the obtained results.

Hi duba, I've edited the abstract. Your English was quite good overall and I only made a few corrections. This paper introduces the first meteorological measurements taken from a snow pit near Nekaa, a village in the Neko Podrucje region, in the mountainous western part of Zemlja.

Thank you very much for corrections!
With last sentence I meant that some more measurements from some other snow pits (in the same region) need to be accomplished. Because we can not be sure that our conclusions (results) are valid for wider region or only for that one investigated snow pit.
It may be that now this sounds even more complicated and not understandable?!

Ok I understood, thanks.
Here's how I changed the last sentence:
To check how these particular results compare to the wider region, investigations of other snow pits should be conducted.
Both are correct in this case:
"something has a great spatial variability" or
"something has great spatial variability"
But I'll have to ask a teacher to cl

Basically, 'variablity' can be considered either countable or uncountable-- thought of either as a parameter or as a quality-- so either is acceptable.
