| Abstract [eng] |
Water level is one of the indicators of the climate change. The reasons of the rise in water level are related with more frequent advection of warm and wet water masses during the cold period, with global atmospheric changes in circulation, with stronger air movement from the west, with rising air temperature, which causes rising water temperature. Rapid rise in water level observed during the last decades of the 20th century is directly associated with the problems of shore destruction, land flooding, violation of ecological balance. It is a matter of great concern. This study aims to investigate water level variability in the region of Lithuania during the last 100 years. |
