All five coastal countries play a role in reducing the water of the Caspian Sea
Referring to the decrease in the water level of the Caspian Sea, the head of the Environmental Protection Organization said: All five countries are involved in the management of the Caspian Sea, and they also play a role in reducing its water.
According to Moj news agency, Ali Selajgeh pointed to the decrease in balance Caspian sea He said: The Caspian Sea is decreasing both in terms of height and water level, and the results of the latest studies, the results of which were also published in the Nature magazine, showed that the condition of the Caspian Sea in terms of the decrease in level and level has several trends and fluctuations.
According to him, according to the climatic conditions, the level of the Caspian Sea has decreased in some cases, and in some cases it has increased and progressed. We are currently in a period where the sea level is decreasing.
Head of the Protection Organization the environment He once again pointed to the results of studies published in the scientific journal Nature and said: For example, an article about the water condition of the Volga River has been published in this journal. The Volga River supplies 80% of Caspian water, but 60% of this river’s water is used for agriculture and 13% of it is used in dams.
Referring to the role of the five Caspian border countries in the situation of this lake, he said: As all five countries participate in the management of the Caspian Sea, they also play a role in reducing its water. It can be said that no country is to blame for the lowering of the water level of the Caspian Sea. Countries carry out their exploitation in watershed management as usual, but climate change, reduction of watershed inputs, especially the Volga River, and increase in evaporation have caused the Caspian Sea to live in a situation where we have seen a decrease in the bed level.
Selajgeh also mentioned the Tehran Convention regarding the Caspian Lake and said: “Meetings are being held in the framework of this convention.” Scientific working groups of the convention have also been formed in order to manage the Caspian Sea both in terms of water and pollutants.
