Summary: | The paper presents the history and major results of research into resources regime and quality of the surface water in the Ob basin concentrated in such water bodies as glaciers rivers lakes reservoirs and wetlands. Studies have long been carried out by such government agencies as the Hydrometeorological Service (Hydromet) the Ministry of Energy and others engineering organizations scientific research institutes of the academy of sciences and universities. The studies included large complex tasks aimed at economic development of the basin territory. By the 1980s an expanded network of stationary hydrological observations existed and basic information about the factors of resources formation regime and surface water quality as well as long-term dynamics of hydrological characteristics had been obtained. Today a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach to the hydrological cycle and geo-run-off at the global and regional scales is related to the changes in climate and the environment in general. |
