Abstract

Summary

Despite the establishment of numerous artificial reservoirs, the issue of water depletion and scarcity in the Sluch River basin remains not only relevant but is worsening over time. This study examines the factors influencing the transformation of the Sluch River’s minimum runoff, which negatively impacts the condition of the Zviahel Reservoir, a critical infrastructure asset. These factors include also evaporation from water surfaces in artificial reservoirs (ponds and reservoirs) upstream in the river basin. Using remote sensing data and hydrometeorological datasets, we conducted a comprehensive assessment of the conditions influencing the minimum flow formation in the Sluch River, particularly in relation to the Zviahel Reservoir functioning. Additionally, we developed a geoinformational hydrological model of the river’s catchment area, dividing the territory into local catchments, and identified water bodies using a modified normalized water index. This analysis allowed for an approximate estimate of potential minimum flow losses due to evaporation.
