Caspian Sea level drop to be discussed at environmental summit — Kremlin aide
"The water level is characterized by cyclicity," Yury Ushakov said
MOSCOW, October 6. /TASS/. The problem of Caspian Sea level drop will be discussed at the Caspian Environmental Summit in Turkmenistan, Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov told reporters.
"I would like to note one acute problem that will naturally be discussed - this is Caspian Sea shallowing," Ushakov said.
"The water level is characterized by cyclicity. Fluctuations reaching several meters per decade. Our specialists attribute these cyclical water level changes primarily to the climatic factor, which leads to the decline in the volume of waters entering the Caspian Sea and acceleration of evaporation," he added.
