| Summary: | The calculation of surface runoff from a catchment area has always been of
great interest, especially in land use planning and management, designing of
water supply facilities, and the assessment of the negative consequences of
water. The reliability of the runoff characteristics obtained serves as the
foundation for the effective utilization of water resources. The relevance
of a quantitative assessment of runoff from a catchment area becomes evident
in the context of climate change observed over the past several decades. The
analysis of the extent of the impact of climate change on runoff, in
conjunction with anthropogenic activity within a stream basin, facilitates
the formulation of appropriate water management measures aimed at the
effective management of water resources. In order to determine the runoff,
in conditions of insufficiently studied hydrological territories, various
methods and modeling methods are used. The most representative data can be
obtained through methods that consider the primary natural factors,
specifically thermal and moisture resources. It is the thermal energy
resources and humidification resources along with azonal factors that have
a direct impact on the processes of runoff formation. Therefore, the
present investigation is dedicated to evaluating the impact of thermal
energy elements and surface humidification of the catchment area on the
conditions of runoff formation. The novelty of this work lies in the
implementation of a genetic method for determining the primary
runoff-forming characteristics, based on the joint solution of water and
heat balance equations. This methodology provides a more precise
determination of runoff characteristics in the absence of hydrological
measurements. The outcomes obtained can also be utilized to reveal the
capabilities of hydro-technical utilities during their reconstruction. |
