Abstract

This study presents the results of an analysis of the hydrological regime of small rivers in the Almaty region based on long-term data on average annual water discharge, air temperature, and atmospheric precipitation. A comparative analysis was conducted across key hydrometeorological stations, revealing significant spatial differences influenced by the region’s orography and altitudinal zonation. It is shown that climatic factors - temperature regime, precipitation, and evapotranspiration - determine the characteristics of runoff formation, the duration of snow cover, and the seasonal nature of the water regime of small rivers. The data indicate the necessity of a comprehensive consideration of natural and climatic conditions when assessing water resources and planning water management activities. The findings are relevant for the development of regional strategies for sustainable water resources management under climate change conditions.
