RSE "Kazhydromet" makes a weekly forecast of the Caspian Sea level. In the northern part of the Caspian Sea, the level fluctuation is expected to be around minus 28.11 m, with a rise to a maximum of minus 27.73 m and a decline to a minimum of minus 28.37 m.
In the Middle part of the Caspian Sea, sea level fluctuation is expected around minus 28.31 m with a rise to a maximum of minus 28.08 m and a decline to a minimum of minus 28.72 m.
* The calculated characteristics were obtained using the MIKE 21 hydrodynamic module of the Danish Hydraulic Institute, adapted in the RSE "Kazhydromet" to the conditions of the Caspian Sea. The calculation used data from sea level observations and a numerical forecast of the baric field for 24-120 hours.
The actual state of the water surface of the Caspian Sea for the period from May 06-12, 2021 corresponds to the previous weekly forecast. The visual coastline of the largest closed reservoir is shown in the satellite image for May 9, 2021. A snapshot of the NASA project.
