Course content
1. to acquaint students with the theoretical foundations of balance research methods; 2. to acquaint students with the techniques of mathematical statistics for analyzing hydro-, meteorological and agro-meteorological data and assessing the accuracy of water balance calculations; 3. to acquaint students with the methods and technologies of spatial and temporal averaging of the components of the water balance equation; 4. to provide students with a clear procedure for performing work on the calculation of the water balance of the river basin, which is necessary for its correct compilation, analysis and, if necessary, assessment and correlation.
