Spatial-temporal change of the maximum water discharge of the mountain rivers of Georgia under conditions of climate warming.
2019
On the basis of statistical processing for the available (on average over 40-60 years) stationary observable figures, the average and the highest maximum discharges were calculated for individual hydroblocks, their probabilistic values of different availability and scale of their development. The long-standing dynamics of maximum discharge are compiled and the rates of annual changes are determined. The study revealed an increase in river floods on the rivers supplied with glacier waters and a decrease on the rivers with increased evaporation and decreased atmospheric precipitation. The noted assessment of changes in maximum discharge is essential for planning water management systems and ensuring environmental safety. The data obtained are of practical use for water management calculations in scientific, business and design organizations, as they allow for ascertaining the technical and economic indicators of different buildings and conducting preventive measures.
