The territory of Central Asia stretches from the Caspian Sea in the west to China in the east, and from central Siberia in the north to Afghanistan and Iran in the south. Despite having an area the size of Western Europe, Central Asia is home to only 57 million people. In 2008, the population of Central Asia accounted for 14% of the population of the Europe and Central Asia (ECA) region, while the gross domestic product (GDP) amounted to only 5.0% of the GDP of the ECA region. The Central Asia Hydrometeorological Services Modernization Project (CA HMSMP) played a key role in enhancing cooperation, improving information sharing, and capacity building among the five National Hydrometeorological Services (NHMS) in Central Asia. The project has made significant progress in strengthening regional cooperation and institutional capacity of the four participating NHMSs. Through joint capacity building activities, including training of forecasters, NHMS specialists have established operational relationships for cooperation, mutual support, and recognition of regional and national benefits of data sharing. A high-level platform for the countries of the region (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan) was also established to work closely together, build consensus on promising improvements, and harmonize practical aspects of weather, climate, and hydrological information services to be managed at the regional level.","PeriodicalId":471280,"journal":{"name":"Гидрометеорология и экология","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135254936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The development of observation methods and data processing currently makes it possible to study wind waves in the open water area of the sea. This paper presents a review of remote sensing data, in which the characteristics of wind waves are presented. According to RS data, the maximum wave height is observed in the Middle Caspian Sea. The highest values of the maximum wave height were observed in different periods of the year, however, in the cold period their number prevailed.","PeriodicalId":471280,"journal":{"name":"Гидрометеорология и экология","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135252430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The climatic data of air temperature, precipitation for the modern period from 1990 to 2021, and wind speed and direction for the period 1966...2000 were taken as a basis. The results of the work showed that, in the territory under consideration, the average annual air temperature ranges from -1.8 to +3.8 0C. Precipitation in most of the territories is unevenly distributed over time. In the warm season, 60...75% of the annual precipitation falls, in the cold season up to 15%. In monthly precipitation distributions, the maximum is observed in June and July, and the minimum in January. The annual precipitation at the high-altitude weather stations Markakol Reserve (1372 m), Katon-Karagai (1081 m) and Leninogorsk (809 m) for the period 1991...2020 is 441...634 mm, and at the weather stations located in the low-mountain part of the considered territory Kurshim (433 m) and Ulken-Naryn (402 m) varies from 256 mm to 395 mm. The values of the average monthly wind speed, calculated from the daily data series, in the annual context showed a high repeatability of the winds of the eastern direction. In the long-term section, the minimum wind speed is observed at the Markakol Reserve station 0.6 m/s (January), and the maximum 4.2 m/s (April) at the Katon-Karagai station","PeriodicalId":471280,"journal":{"name":"Гидрометеорология и экология","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135252994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
