Synopsis:

The aim is to apply the study of hydrological processes in the conditions of a catchment affected by human activities. Meteorological processes in the near-surface layer of the atmosphere, global climate change, genesis of the precipitation-runoff process in the basin, water within the ecosystem and stability of landscape elements, influence of human activities on hydrological processes, application of mathematical models.
